Technical Analysis Overview
BNB’s trading over the past 24 hours showed the kind of disciplined price action often associated with institutional accumulation.The token traded within a $22.41 range, from a low of $792.47 to a high of $814.88, with buyers stepping in repeatedly at the $800–$803 level.
Those support retests drew consistent volume, suggesting a readiness to defend the zone. Resistance first emerged near $811.71, then again in the $814–$815 area, where algorithmic selling programs added pressure.
The turning point came as BNB built a series of higher lows, $800.44, $801.20, $802.47 and $804.08, steadily absorbing sell orders.
This sequence was followed by the removal of key resistance barriers at $803.50, $807.20 and $809.50, a pattern market technicians view as a sign of sustained buying interest.
A surge in volume at the $800.44 support level sparked a decisive push higher, with a breakout above $804 then occurring. That rally carried the token to intraday highs near $810.57 before settling just below the $815 resistance zone,a level that now stands as the next test for bullish momentum.

KuCoin captured a record share of centralised exchange volume in 2025, with more than $1.25tn traded as its volumes grew faster than the wider crypto market.
What to know:
- KuCoin recorded over $1.25 trillion in total trading volume in 2025, equivalent to an average of roughly $114 billion per month, marking its strongest year on record.
- This performance translated into an all-time high share of centralised exchange volume, as KuCoin’s activity expanded faster than aggregate CEX volumes, which slowed during periods of lower market volatility.
- Spot and derivatives volumes were evenly split, each exceeding $500 billion for the year, signalling broad-based usage rather than reliance on a single product line.
- Altcoins accounted for the majority of trading activity, reinforcing KuCoin’s role as a primary liquidity venue beyond BTC and ETH at a time when majors saw more muted turnover.
- Even as overall crypto volumes softened mid-year, KuCoin maintained elevated baseline activity, indicating structurally higher user engagement rather than short-lived volume spikes.
