What’s cooking

These developments look promising, and several of BNB’s on-chain metrics registered interesting movements as well.

For instance, BNB’s MVRV ratio was up compared to the last week. This is a good sign as it increases the possibility of a further uptrend.

Moreover, BNB’s volume was also steady, mining the chances of any sudden price drops. 

Nonetheless, not all metrics were in BNB’s favor. Daily active addresses registered a continuous decline over the last month, which is not a positive signal as it suggests fewer users are actively trading in the ecosystem.

Moreover, despite being listed on LunarCrush’s top five crypto list, BNB’s social volume also declined. Thus, suggesting less interest from investors in the token.

More so, Messari’s chart revealed a decline in BNB’s volatility, which might restrict the coin from going up in the short term. 

Looking forward

Unlike several negative metrics, BNB’s daily chart painted a bullish picture as multiple market indicators supported the possibility of a northbound movement.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) registered upticks, indicating a possible surge in the coming days.

The MACD’s findings revealed that after a long tussle between the bull and the bears, the former seemed to have the upper hand as a bullish crossover was registered.

Moreover, the Bollinger Bands showed that BNB’s price was in a crunched zone, which further increased the possibility of a breakout.
