BNB Price Soars To New All-Time High, Flips Intel By Market Cap

The BNB price surged 7% in the past 24 hours to trade at $1,066 as of 01:52 a.m. EST, following its historic breakthrough past the $1,060 mark earlier today.

The Binance coin has been on a tear this last week, surpassing the $1,000 mark for the first time. This surge has continued in the past day, with BNB claiming a new all-time high (ATH) at $1,079.

Its market capitalization soared past $148 billion, making it the 3rd-largest altcoin behind Ethereum and XRP and enabling it to surpass chip giant Intel’s $138.15 billion valuation.

With the positive rally, a whale has deposited $7.4 million into Hyperliquid and opened long positions in BNB and XPL with 3x leverage, according to on-chain data, suggesting some heavyweight investors still believe the token has more upside potential.

BNB Price Surges Past Resistance: Can The Momentum Hold?

The BNB price has recently experienced a bullish rally, breaking through key Fibonacci retracement levels with conviction.

After consolidating around the $700–$800 range earlier in the year, the Binance Coin has pushed significantly higher, recently crossing the psychological $1,000 mark and now trading at $1,066.

The chart shows a clean breakout above the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) and sustained support above the 200-day SMA, confirming a strong uptrend.

A parabolic curve has formed in the most recent candles, which often signals aggressive buying pressure but can also precede a correction if momentum overheats.

Binance Coin Indicators Point to Strength, But Flash Warning Signs

Technical indicators support the bullish case but also signal caution. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is currently at 81, well into overbought territory, implying that the market may be due for a pullback.

Meanwhile, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) remains strongly positive, with the MACD line (blue) above the signal line (orange), reinforcing upward momentum.

The moving averages provide additional confirmation of strength: the 50-day SMA has turned steeply upward, while the 200-day SMA remains in long-term bullish alignment. These factors indicate that the overall trend remains strongly bullish despite the potential for short-term retracement.

Looking ahead, if the price of BNB can sustain above the $1,000–$1,050 zone, the likelihood of a move toward $1,285 increases, which is a 20% surge from the current level.

However, a pullback to test support around $950 or even $900 is possible before the next leg up.

The CoinMarketCap Altcoin Season Index has surged to 79/100, which shows that major altcoins may soon soar as we enter the altcoin season, with the average crypto RSI hovering around 48.
