In a week defined by contrasting stories, Binance Coin (BNB), SEI, and BlockDAG each show different types of momentum in crypto’s evolving landscape. BNB’s move above $1,100 has been linked by market commentary to reported treasury purchases and the Maxwell upgrade, which the network says reduced fees and improved throughput.
SEI’s price trend tells a subtler story, with buyers defending the $0.27 area as traders watch whether the market can sustain a move toward the $0.44 region. In this week’s market discussion, BlockDAG has drawn attention for testnet and fundraising updates.
The project says its Awakening Testnet is processing around 1,400 transactions per second (TPS) with EVM features live ahead of launch. Project materials also state that the token sale price in “Batch 31” is $0.0015 and that more than $420 million has been raised to date.
BNB Breaks $1,100 on Treasury Moves
BNB has moved past $1,100, marking one of its stronger weeks this year with an increase of roughly 18%. Some market participants have attributed the move to reported treasury purchases and recent network upgrades. Reports have also referenced institutional and corporate buyers (including Kazakhstan’s Alem Fund) increasing BNB exposure, though these holdings are not independently verified in this article.
The recent Maxwell upgrade has also been cited as a factor, with the network stating that it reduced gas fees and improved block speeds. Some dashboards and commentary have pointed to changes in on-chain activity, including transaction volumes and total value locked (TVL), though these indicators can fluctuate and depend on the data source used.
BNB’s rally combines technical price strength with ongoing interest in network developments. As with any crypto asset, short-term price moves can be volatile, and continued gains are not assured.
SEI Eyes $0.44 Breakout After Holding Critical Support
SEI has remained relatively stable despite wider market volatility, rising by roughly 4% this week as traders watch for a possible breakout. The token has been trading around $0.2898, holding above the $0.2733 support level that has held in recent sessions.
Some technical traders interpret this as a base-building phase. If price breaks above $0.35, chart-based targets cited by analysts often include the $0.44–$0.447 area; however, these are not guarantees and depend on broader market conditions and liquidity. If support fails, the market could also see a short-term pullback.
Watching how price behaves around these zones and whether volume confirms the move may help clarify whether SEI is entering a new trend or continuing consolidation.
BlockDAG’s Awakening Testnet and EVM Claims
BlockDAG says its Awakening Testnet is live and is processing more than 1,400 TPS with EVM compatibility. The team has described this as evidence that core infrastructure is being developed ahead of a mainnet launch, and CEO Antony Turner has referred to it as a “readiness advantage.” These statements reflect project commentary and have not been independently audited in this article.
If the stated performance holds in wider conditions, it could affect how quickly developers and node operators evaluate the network once a mainnet is available. As with other early-stage networks, testnet metrics may not match mainnet performance, and operational stability typically changes as usage scales.
The project also reports that its ongoing token sale is priced at $0.0015 in “Batch 31” and that more than $420 million has been raised so far. Readers should treat fundraising and pricing claims as project-reported unless confirmed by independent sources.
More broadly, claims around throughput, compatibility, and user growth should be evaluated alongside documentation, code, security reviews, and third-party testing where available.
Final Thoughts
Across these three assets, recent attention has centered on different themes: BNB’s network updates and reported treasury activity, SEI’s technical levels and near-term range, and BlockDAG’s project-reported testnet performance and fundraising status.
BlockDAG’s materials cite figures including “over 3 million users,” “20,000 miners shipped,” and a $0.0015 token sale price ahead of listing. These are project-provided metrics and should be treated with caution without independent verification.
