BNB news today is led by Phantom’s launch of native BNB Chain support on 1 October 2026, alongside preparations for the network’s Jenner upgrade. Phantom users can now view BNB Chain balances, send and receive tokens, and swap assets within the wallet without switching applications. The integration is expected to broaden access to BNB Chain assets and decentralized applications, although its effect on sustained liquidity and user activity remains unconfirmed.
