BNB Chain today announced its $1 billion Builder Fund, backed by YZi Labs, to accelerate current and future builders on BNB Chain. This fund reinforces our commitment to long-term builders innovating across Trading, RWA, AI, DeSci, DeFi, Payments, and Wallets, while leveraging BNB Chain’s high-performance, low-cost infrastructure and its 460M+ user ecosystem. Through this $1B Builder Fund, YZi Labs and BNB Chain will provide funding, incubation, integrations, and direct access to builders dedicated to advancing innovations. “BNB Ecosystem represents the next phase of digital infrastructure, where decentralization and scalability converge with security and real distribution,” said Ella Zhang, Head of YZi Labs. “Through this $1B Fund, we are committed to supporting BNB builders creating open systems that connect technology back to human progress.” Strengthening the Ecosystem Momentum The fund launch comes as BNB Chain reached record milestones: 26 million daily transactions (8 Oct, 2025) #1 in DEX trading volume and daily active users BNB surpassed $1,330, becoming the third-largest digital asset by market cap. Recent technical upgrades such as the Maxwell Hardfork have further enhanced performance - reducing block times to 0.75 seconds and cutting fees to 0.05 Gwei. These improvements continue to attract more users and builders to the network. These milestones tell the same story—a growing global community converging on BNB Chain’s fast, scalable, and accessible infrastructure - the foundation for the future of the onchain economy.
