From last year the usecase of binance smart chain increased heavily. Why I am saying this? Those who are older in the market they know bnb was just a exchange coin. But very efficiently binance or CZ put many utilities to the bnb coin. That worked. But u think binance chain is the most cleaver move CZ done. The old chain is not that popular In terms of usecasse but the new binance smart chain works better than I thought. Many devs and follower started to use it like a alternative to ethereum. And that make the hype in the market  and now it is highly popular every one using it. I don't knwo when it will go 1k but I'm pretty sure it will be more popular and surely reach 1K someday if binance keep this chain upgraded.
