BNB, the native token of the BNB Chain that’s also used for discounts on Binance fees, dropped 3.3% in the past 24 hours, falling from $1,117 to as low as $1,063 before stabilizing just below $1,080.
The sell-off erased recent gains and cut through key technical levels, according to CryptoX Research’s technical analysis data model. Trading volume surged 87% above its 24-hour average during the decline.
The price action followed a sharp drop in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies and reflected a wider retreat in crypto markets as the market flushed off excess leverage. The wider market, as measured via the CryptoX 20 (CD20) index, is down 2.74%.
The downturn gained momentum as algorithmic trading systems kicked in, triggering a cascade of sell orders that pushed prices lower. When demand finally caught up, BNB found tentative support around the $1,070 mark.
Attempts to bounce back were weak. Price stalled near $1,075, where selling resumed, keeping BNB locked in a narrow range. On shorter-term charts, momentum indicators have eased but not reversed, and buyers remain hesitant to commit without a clearer trend.
Whether this level holds could determine if the move was a one-off capitulation or the start of a deeper correction. For now, traders are watching $1,070 as a key support level.
