Binance Achieves Record Net Inflows in Q3 2025
Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, continues to strengthen its dominance in the crypto space. The platform recorded a staggering $14.8 billion in net inflows during Q3 2025, a figure far exceeding its competitors. In comparison, the next ten largest exchanges combined saw just $94 million in net inflows, with most experiencing outflows. Binance’s inflows were 158 times greater than those of its closest rivals, underscoring the market confidence in the exchange and its services.
In addition to its price surge, BNB Chain has made significant strides in improving its network efficiency. The BNB Smart Chain (BSC) recently implemented a new minimum gas price of 0.05 Gwei, or roughly $0.005 per transaction. This change positions BNB Chain as one of the most cost-efficient blockchain networks in the market. The update aims to improve the overall user experience by reducing transaction costs and increasing speed, making BSC more attractive for developers and users alike.
Binance’s Strong Growth Amid ‘Uptober’ Market Optimism
The recent price surge in BNB comes as Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao expressed optimism for a strong ‘Uptober’ rally. Zhao pointed to historical trends, such as Bitcoin’s breakout during the 2015–2017 bull run, specifically highlighting October 2017 as a key period for major price surges. As BNB benefits from increased derivatives activity and Binance’s impressive growth, it seems poised to play a major role in the ongoing market rally.
