BNB fell 12% from its record price, prompting questions about whether the uptrend has ended. The move hits leveraged traders, companies holding BNB on their books, and big investors still considering an entry. The decline as a routine pullback within an uptrend that remains intact.
BNB set a fresh record at $1,079 on 21 September 2025. Even after the slide, the token climbed back toward the round number $1,000 zone, suggesting dip buyers remain active.
The 50-day and 200-day moving averages both point higher, and the 14-day RSI sits near 80. In crypto, an RSI near 80 often flags strong upward speed, even if the reading also hints at an overbought state.
A main demand zone at $876-$900, with finer levels at $955.75, $943.00 and $929.02, areas where buy orders may halt further drops and stabilize price.
How far will BNB fall?
Price forecasts spread wide, with Changelly seeing $610-$676 for October 2025, while TradingView or Coinpedia float a 2025 top at $2,292 and stretch numbers out to 2030. The wide gap breeds choppy price action as holders work from different time lines.
The pullback shakes funding rates and swells open interest in perpetual swaps, meaning traders who use leverage face sharper risk as volatility spikes.
AÂ U.S. BNB ETF, if approved, would open the door for pension funds and endowments and would add credibility to the token as an investable asset.
Developer counts in some reportshttps://thecryptocurrencypost.net/bnb-chain-hands-out-45-million-dollars-in-bnb-to-memecoin-traders-hit-by-the-11-october-2025-crash/ have fallen 85% and the BSC memecoin corner shows weak spots; either issue could deepen a sell off if it worsens.
The 12% dip is a reset rather than a trend break. The next focal point is the U.S. ETF story — approval would redraw the flow of institutional money and set the token’s next course.
