Binance Coin (BNB) has officially joined Robinhood’s spot trading lineup for U.S. users, marking another major step in mainstream adoption. The listing comes as BNB continues its impressive rally, outperforming Bitcoin and Ethereum by over 30% year to date. Analysts say the move could further boost investor confidence as Binance’s ecosystem strengthens amid growing institutional interest.
Robinhood Expands Crypto Offerings with Binance Coin
Robinhood confirmed that BNB is now available for spot trading on its platform, allowing users across the U.S. to buy and sell the altcoin directly. The addition places BNB alongside Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Solana (SOL), further diversifying the platform’s crypto portfolio.
The timing of the listing is notable. Just days earlier, Robinhood added ASTER and Plasma’s XPL, both of which saw sharp price jumps. However, BNB remained stable around $1,077 during its debut, reflecting a more mature and steady market for the asset. TradingView data shows BNB gained nearly 2% afterward, recovering alongside the broader crypto market following recent volatility.

Coinbase has also hinted at listing BNB, adding the token to its official roadmap. The move signals a shift among U.S. exchanges that had previously avoided listing Binance-linked assets due to regulatory uncertainty. Now, with both Robinhood and Coinbase signaling support, BNB’s accessibility in the U.S. is growing rapidly.
BNB Outperforms BTC and ETH as Investors Eye Next Market Leader
BNB’s performance this year has been remarkable. According to CoinMarketCap, the token has surged 53% YTD, compared to Bitcoin’s 15% and Ethereum’s 15%. Solana, meanwhile, is down 2% YTD. This strength emerges amid renewed activity on the BNB Smart Chain, driven by the so-called “BSC meme season,” which has attracted significant liquidity and retail trading volume.

The coin also hit multiple all-time highs in 2025, with the most recent peak at $1,372 last week. Analysts attribute part of the rally to speculation surrounding potential political developments. Reports suggest that U.S. President Donald Trump may consider a pardon for Binance co-founder Changpeng “CZ” Zhao, a rumor that has buoyed market sentiment.
With Robinhood’s listing and institutional confidence returning, BNB is positioning itself as a top contender in the digital asset space. Analysts like Master Kenobi predict that both BNB and Solana could challenge Ethereum’s dominance, setting the stage for a fierce battle for the second spot by market capitalization.



An excellent and thoughtful piece.
