  • On Monday, Binance Coin (BNB) dropped to the yearly low of $209.88.
  • Technical BNB price charts point to an extremum trigger below $210.
  • Crypto market watchers accused Binance of BNB price manipulation.

The global crypto giant’s native coin, Binance Coin (BNB), is in the middle of an intense bear and bull fight around the fundamental $210 support line, which could be a game-changer for the $32bn market cap alternative cryptocurrency.

According to Crypto Scalps Bot, the fourth largest cryptocurrency by global market capitalization broke dextremum, below the major support line at $215.23. In technical terms, crypto dextremum points to a bearish sentiment shift, triggering mass long-position liquidations. In opposition to extremum, this metric suggests an incoming price drop.

Binance’s CEO Changpeng ‘CZ’ Zhao has been accused of ‘heavily defending’ the $212 support line for $BNB. This theory has been posted by crypto macro analyst Marty Party, claiming a hole in liquidity. In response, CZ argued that the analyst hadn’t checked the size of the SAFU Insurance Fund, claiming the $212 barrier was random.

The crypto giant’s native coin plummeted below the fundamental support line of $240 on August 14th, 2023, and has retraced the February 2021 levels.

Why This Matters
