- Nano Labs bought 74,315 BNB for $50 million, kickstarting its $1 billion Binance Coin treasury plan.
- BNB showed price resilience post-purchase, showing growing market confidence.
Nano Labs has officially kicked off its Binance Coin [BNB] Treasury ambitions with a $50 million purchase – just a week after announcing its intent.
The China-based firm, listed on Nasdaq, is positioning itself as a major player in the BNB ecosystem.
As it transitions into a BNB-centric digital asset company, its latest acquisition has sparked sharp upward price movement for the coin as well.
Strategic buy sends a strong signal to crypto markets
Nano Labs has made its most aggressive move yet toward establishing a BNB reserve, spending $50 million to acquire 74,315 BNB in a single over-the-counter deal.
The transaction, executed at an average price of $672.45, marks a pivotal step in the firm’s digital asset strategy.
The purchase also coincided with a sharp uptick in BNB’s price, as trading volumes surged to nearly $1 billion.
With this acquisition, Nano Labs’ total crypto holdings have risen to $160 million, showing its growing presence in the digital asset space.
Sets sights on $1B reserve, long-term holdings
Nano Labs isn’t just buying BNB – it’s building a vision around it. In June, the China-based firm announced plans to become a dedicated BNB Treasury company, targeting a $1 billion reserve.
The press release read,
“Over the long run, Nano Labs intends to hold 5% to 10% of BNB’s total circulating supply.”
The firm plans to raise up to $500 million through convertible notes and private placements. These funds will support its long-term crypto investment strategy.
While Bitcoin [BTC] is still on its radar, the focus is shifting. The company appears committed to expanding its BNB holdings.
It describes this move as a strategic, long-term play in the crypto space.
BNB reacts
Following the landmark acquisition, BNB experienced heightened volatility but showed signs of resilience.
The hourly chart revealed a gradual rise on the day of the purchase; the coin proceeded to fall below $656 on the 4th of July before recovering to the $660 range.
At press time, the RSI hovered near neutral at 49.67, while the MACD remained slightly bearish but showed signs of convergence.

While not a breakout just yet, the recovery signals growing buy-side pressure.
As the market digests the size of the purchase, momentum could continue to build. This trend may accelerate if Nano Labs’ long-term treasury strategy gains investor trust.
Thus, stronger confidence could attract more buyers and support sustained upward movement.
