Another user by the name of Goyanda Pinda believes that there is no trade volume for BNB because the price to withdrawal the tokens is far too high. And CryptoCam also questioned why anyone would trade on Binance.

The list goes on of users who are less than enthusiastic about the new pairing. Customers made plenty of complaints about the new launch, noting how much controversy has been seen around HitBTC. Even big names in the tech industry have stated their distaste for the exchange, most recently that being John Mcafee, who released a string of tweets speaking on the exchange. His remarks were mainly focused on the company’s policies, particularly on how they attack the poor, virtually killing off a large group of people. No one was surprised by McAfee’s response to the token pairings as he has shown support for coins like MTC, the Docademic token that is backed by free healthcare.

BNB token hasn’t changed much in price since its listing. If anything, it has dropped in the last day or so, roughly 4% down from its original listing price. Currently, the coin is listed as the 16th highest on cryptocurrency rankings according to per CMC. It was only a few weeks ago that the Binance platform took on the Trust Wallet, a new product just launched last year in November.
