BNB Chain just dropped a timely reminder on X that's got the Web3 community buzzing. With over 500 applications last season and only 15 teams getting the chance to pitch at the New York Stock Exchange, the competition is fierce. But if you're a Web3 founder—especially one dabbling in meme tokens or innovative blockchain projects—today might be your last shot to join MVB Season 11.
What is MVB Season 11?
MVB stands for Most Valuable Builder, BNB Chain's flagship accelerator program. This season, it's been upgraded to a 10-week global offline residency, running from October 6 to December 5, 2025. It's a collaboration between BNB Chain, Binance Labs, and CMC Labs (CoinMarketCap's accelerator arm), designed to supercharge early-stage projects building on the BNB Chain ecosystem.
Think of it as a bootcamp for blockchain innovators. You'll get hands-on support to turn your ideas into scalable realities, with a focus on areas like DeFi (decentralized finance, think lending and trading protocols), GameFi (gaming meets finance, where play-to-earn models shine), SocialFi (social platforms powered by blockchain, perfect for community-driven projects like meme tokens), infrastructure tools, and consumer apps.
Why Should Meme Token Creators Care?
At Meme Insider, we're all about the wild world of meme tokens, and BNB Chain is a hotspot for them—thanks to its low fees and fast transactions on the BNB Smart Chain (BSC). While MVB isn't exclusively for memes, it opens doors for projects that blend humor, virality, and utility. Imagine pitching a meme-based SocialFi app or a GameFi project with meme elements. Past seasons have accelerated over 150 projects, some of which evolved into major players in the crypto space.
If your meme token has ambitions beyond pumps and dumps—like integrating real-world assets (RWAs) or building fan engagement tools—this residency could provide the mentorship and network to make it happen. Plus, with meme culture driving so much of Web3 adoption, programs like this help legitimize and scale those ideas.
Key Benefits for Participants
- Mentorship Galore: One-on-one sessions with experts from BNB Chain's BD team, Binance Labs investors, and industry leaders. Topics cover everything from tokenomics (how your token economy works) to marketing strategies and legal compliance in Web3.
