BNB touched $1,370 in October, then bled down to around $865–870 right now. A lot of people are panicking, but I’m actually calm. Here’s why this dip looks normal to me and where I think we go from here. Why the ATH happened in the first place   - Bitcoin’s 2024 halving is still doing its thing (supply shock doesn’t end in one month).   - BNB Chain became the king of cheap DeFi again: Pendle, Ondo, Lista, Alpaca, Venus — TVL is climbing fast.   - Real-world assets (tokenized treasuries, bonds) are exploding and a huge chunk is sitting on BSC.   - Binance keeps adding actual utility: PayFi, Greenfield storage, Polymarket integration, etc.   All of that pushed us to $1,370. Nothing crazy, just fundamentals catching up. Why we’re dipping now   - Profit-taking after a 100%+ run in 4 months. Normal.   - Bitcoin corrected from $109k → $83k, everything follows BTC in the short term.   - Year-end tax harvesting + low holiday volume = thin liquidity = deeper dips. On-chain stuff I’m watching   - Daily active addresses still healthy (1.2–1.5M).   - Staking ratio keeps rising (people locking instead of selling).   - Gas fees super low → perfect time for builders to ship → more usage coming in January. Risks I’m not ignoring   - If BTC breaks below $80k, BNB can test $750–780 quick.   - Solana is stealing some gaming/NFT mindshare right now.   - Any bad news from regulators on RWAs could hurt short-term sentiment. My personal plan   Entry zone: $840–870 (already started small DCA)   First target: $1,050–1,100 (previous highs + Fib extension)   Bigger target 2026: $1,500–1,800 if the bull cycle still has legs   Stop-loss: $790 (would invalidate the whole structure for me) I’m keeping 25% of my alt portfolio in BNB, staking the rest on BSC for 6–7% APY while waiting. Feels like the risk/reward is stupid good right here. What about you? Buying this dip, waiting, or fully in Solana camp right now? Drop your thoughts, let’s talk.
