About Steven

Steven is a charming spider character and mascot introduced by the BNB Chain team through a social media post on September 25, 2025. The post, captioned "Rain or shine, Build N Build," featured promotional artwork of cute, cartoonish black spiders actively "building" webs and structures, with one central spider donning a yellow hard hat emblazoned with the BNB logo.

When a community member jokingly referred to the "scary spider creatures" in a reply, the official BNB Chain account responded lightheartedly with "That's Steven," officially naming the mascot and adding a playful touch to its debut. Steven represents a dedicated "builder" in the BNB Chain ecosystem, directly tying into the chain's original "Build N Build" ethos that encourages relentless development and innovation regardless of market conditions.

The spider motif is especially fitting, as spiders are renowned in nature for their exceptional web-building abilities, which metaphorically align with the interconnected, decentralized nature of Web3 technologies. In the artwork, Steven and fellow spiders are shown surrounding developers or constructing elaborate webs, symbolizing community-driven progress and the collective effort to make the BNB Chain "great again."
