The 'one drag three' architecture of BNB Chain
The BNB trend at the beginning of 2026 can be described as a 'textbook example of resilience.' After a pullback from the high of $960 in mid-January, the price touched the deep water zone of $850 on January 27, and then staged a textbook V-shaped reversal, currently standing firmly at the 883.05 USDT mark. This key candlestick with a long lower shadow not only signals the exhaustion of the bears but also confirms the 'mining cost iron bottom' in the $860 range—when the price drops to this range, funds seeking returns from Launchpool will decisively enter the market, forming a rigid buying support.
Compared to the overall market, BNB's resilience is particularly prominent: during the same period, BTC pulled back by 4.7%, and ETH plunged by 6.9%, while BNB's maximum decline was only 11.4% and quickly regained lost ground. From a technical perspective, the price is currently testing the short-term moving average resistance at $890; if it breaks through effectively, it will initiate an assault on the $920-930 fluctuation range, and the $1,000 milestone has shifted from 'out of reach' to a 'tangible' goal.
