Best-Performing Cryptocurrency Powers Controversial Exchange
Only one major cryptocurrency has outperformed industry bellwether Bitcoin this year — the namesake token from the contentious exchange Binance Holdings.
Binance Coin, usually referred to as BNB, has surged about 150%, according to CoinMarketCap.com. Eight of the top-10 coins by market capitalization either decreased in price or appreciated much less in a year where Bitcoin has doubled.
