BNB slips toward $850 as market pullback weighs on token

The decline comes as bitcoin sank back to $87,000 in Tuesday trade.

"BNB falls 1.7% to $849 amid exchange token market cap challenges as XRP narrows gap."

What to know:

  • The price of BNB has dropped over 1.5% over the past 24 hours to around $850.
  • The decline comes amid a wider market drawdown, with bitcoin pulling back to the $87,000 level.
  • Traders expect consolidation between $850 and $870, with a potential break above that range leading to a move towards $900.

The price of BNB is hovering around the $850 mark after losing more than 1.5% of its value over the past 24 hours.

The token is down from a recent high near the $870 level, and comes alongside bitcoin's decline from above $90,000 to the $87,000 area on Tuesday morning.

Price action reflected that caution. After a brief push above $860 on strong volume earlier, selling pressure returned and capped gains. The wider market is nevertheless also affected, with the wider CoinDesk 20 (CD20) index, losing 2.5% of its value over the last 24 hours.

Volume spikes pointed to defensive positioning rather than fresh risk-taking, according to CoinDesk Research's technical analysis data model.

Not all signals were negative as adoption kept growing. Major prediction market Kalshi added deposits and withdrawals for BNB and stablecoins on the BNB Chain.

For now, traders see consolidation between $850 and $870. A clear break above that range could reopen calls for a move toward $900 later in the year, while a drop below $820 would suggest deeper losses.

UK Looks to US to Adopt More Crypto-Friendly Approach

The UK and US are reportedly preparing to deepen cooperation on digital assets, with Britain looking to copy the Trump administration’s crypto-friendly stance in a bid to boost innovation.  UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves and US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent discussed on Tuesday how the two nations could strengthen their coordination on crypto, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.  The discussions also involved representatives from crypto companies, including Coinbase, Circle Internet Group and Ripple, with executives from the Bank of America, Barclays and Citi also attending, according to the report. The agreement was made “last-minute” after crypto advocacy groups urged the UK government on Thursday to adopt a more open stance toward the industry, claiming its cautious approach to the sector has left the country lagging in innovation and policy.  Source: Rachel Reeves Deal to include stablecoins, look to unlock adoption Any deal between the countries is likely to include stablecoins, the Financial Times reported, an area of crypto that US President Donald Trump made a policy priority and in which his family has significant business interests. The Financial Times reported on Monday that UK crypto advocacy groups also slammed the Bank of England’s proposal to limit individual stablecoin holdings to between 10,000 British pounds ($13,650) and 20,000 pounds ($27,300), claiming it would be difficult and expensive to implement. UK banks appear to have slowed adoption too, with around 40% of 2,000 recently surveyed crypto investors saying that their banks had either blocked or delayed a payment to a crypto provider.  Many of these actions have been linked to concerns over volatility, fraud and scams. The UK has made some progress on crypto regulation recently, proposing a framework in May that would see crypto exchanges, dealers, and agents treated similarly to traditional finance firms, with…
