Nano Labs Launches Plan to Accumulate $1 Billion in BNB

Nano Labs and the First Steps

Nano Labs has made its first OTC transaction, purchasing 74,315 BNB at an average price of approximately $672.45 per token, bringing the company’s total digital assets — including Bitcoin and BNB — to approximately $160 million. The transaction marks the first step in a long-term plan to accumulate up to $1 billion in BNB, which would equate to owning between 5% and 10% of the token’s total circulating supply (approximately 145.9 million tokens).

To fund this strategy, Nano Labs raised $500 million through a convertible note issuance in late June 2025, with plans to expand further through future private offerings. This was a bold move, making Nano Labs the first publicly listed company in the US to choose BNB as its core asset in its treasury.

Nano Labs’ BNB acquisition comes as more and more publicly traded companies are turning to digital assets as part of their financial strategy, similar to what MicroStrategy did with Bitcoin. The choice of BNB – the native token of the Binance ecosystem – shows confidence in the potential of major altcoins, rather than focusing solely on Bitcoin or Ethereum as is the general trend.

This also reflects the rise of digital asset accumulation strategies through traditional financial instruments such as convertible bonds, which allow companies to leverage debt to invest in highly volatile markets without immediately selling their shares. This trend is reinforced by the growing interest from institutional investors in tokens with thriving ecosystems such as BNB.

New opportunity or challenge?

What impact does this event have on investors and the market?For investors, Nano Labs' BNB accumulation plan offers an opportunity to indirectly participate in BNB growth through the company's shares.

However, the drop in the stock price after the announcement shows that investors are weighing long-term potential against short-term risks, especially as revenue from Nano Labs' chip business has fallen sharply in 2024.

In terms of the market, the initial $50 million transaction may not cause a big immediate stir due to its small size compared to BNB's $93.4 billion market capitalization, but if the $1 billion plan is successful, it could increase the demand and value of the token in the long term.

Nano Labs' $1 billion fundraising plan faces many challenges.

First, raising $500 million through convertible bonds could increase the company's debt, putting financial pressure on it if the price of BNB does not increase as expected.

Second, the reliance on BNB — which is heavily influenced by Binance and its policies — poses risks if the ecosystem encounters legal or technical issues. Finally, the negative reaction from the stock market suggests that investors may not support the strategy of transitioning to crypto, especially when Nano Labs’ traditional business is struggling.
