BNB is giving a good fight to Ethereum. But I don't think BNB will ever pass over Ethereum or make near it. BNB is backed by the largest cryptocurrency exchange Binance and that's why it's pumping so much. When Binance loses their position in the market, the token price of BNB will be down a lot like other alt's.
It's clear that Binance using their power to push BNB and want to increase the activity of their chain. Some people taking this as a way to get in Binance exchange. I mean who doesn't want to be listed on the #1 exchange. This is why we're seeing projects moving from eth platform to Binance Platform. This is not good for the community when someone misuses their power. If they give out 1 BNB just to use their platform I am not going to use it. I don't think they created anything new leave ETH chain and use their chain. BNB is a short term investment opportunity with huge risk where ETH is for long term investment. Now people need to decide which one they're going with.
