BNB Lags Wider Market Despite Volume Surge Resistance Levels Hold

Despite uncertainty and a lack of breakout, BNB's fundamentals may be supportive, with recent developments support a bullish case.

"BNB rises 1.22% with high volume amid market rally but shows signs of consolidation."

What to know:

  • BNB edged higher to top $890, gaining over 1%, but underperformed the wider crypto market which rose 2.5%.
  • Trading volume surged 51% above the weekly average, suggesting possible whale participation, but BNB's price underperformance may indicate a rotation away from the token.
  • Despite uncertainty and a lack of breakout, BNB's fundamentals may be supportive, with recent developments like Binance's ADGM approval and new infrastructure on BNB Chain, but traders remain cautious.

BNB edged higher over the last 24-hour period to top $890, gaining over 1%. While it edged higher, the wider crypto market outperformed it, with the CoinDesk 20 (CD20) index moving up 2.5% in the same period.

Trading activity surged, with 24-hour volume jumping 51% above the weekly average, according to CoinDesk Research's technical analysis data model.

That kind of spike often signals whale participation, either in the accumulation or capitulation side. In this case, the volume surge alongside price underperformance suggests a possible rotation away from BNB toward stronger assets, a red flag for short-term momentum.

BNB’s chart action reflects that uncertainty. The token bounced off support near $885 but failed to hold above $927 intraday, forming a clear resistance band. A descending channel on shorter timeframes adds to the picture of consolidation, not breakout.

Still, some underlying fundamentals may be quietly supportive. Recent developments like Binance’s full ADGM approval and Sora’s new “Agentic Oracle” on BNB Chain show infrastructure and regulatory momentum building.

But for now, traders remain cautious, waiting to see whether BNB can turn institutional attention into sustained price strength.

Cryptos Signal Divergence Ahead of Fed Rate Decision

Cryptos Signal Divergence Ahead of Fed Rate Decision

The post Cryptos Signal Divergence Ahead of Fed Rate Decision appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto assets send conflicting signals ahead of the Federal Reserve’s September rate decision. On-chain data reveals a clear decrease in Bitcoin and Ethereum flowing into centralized exchanges, but a sharp increase in altcoin inflows. The findings come from a Tuesday report by CryptoQuant, an on-chain data platform. The firm’s data shows a stark divergence in coin volume, which has been observed in movements onto centralized exchanges over the past few weeks. Bitcoin and Ethereum Inflows Drop to Multi-Month Lows Sponsored Sponsored Bitcoin has seen a dramatic drop in exchange inflows, with the 7-day moving average plummeting to 25,000 BTC, its lowest level in over a year. The average deposit per transaction has fallen to 0.57 BTC as of September. This suggests that smaller retail investors, rather than large-scale whales, are responsible for the recent cash-outs. Ethereum is showing a similar trend, with its daily exchange inflows decreasing to a two-month low. CryptoQuant reported that the 7-day moving average for ETH deposits on exchanges is around 783,000 ETH, the lowest in two months. Other Altcoins See Renewed Selling Pressure In contrast, other altcoin deposit activity on exchanges has surged. The number of altcoin deposit transactions on centralized exchanges was quite steady in May and June of this year, maintaining a 7-day moving average of about 20,000 to 30,000. Recently, however, that figure has jumped to 55,000 transactions. Altcoins: Exchange Inflow Transaction Count. Source: CryptoQuant CryptoQuant projects that altcoins, given their increased inflow activity, could face relatively higher selling pressure compared to BTC and ETH. Meanwhile, the balance of stablecoins on exchanges—a key indicator of potential buying pressure—has increased significantly. The report notes that the exchange USDT balance, around $273 million in April, grew to $379 million by August 31, marking a new yearly high. CryptoQuant interprets this surge as a reflection of…
