Binance Coin’s so-called eventful week may not have been that eventful because… 

The Binance Coin [BNB] chain recorded 19.5 million transactions on its network over what seemed like a torrid week. According to the updated posted by the chain on 8 October, BNB ended the week with an average of 2.78 million transactions. Furthermore, the daily active users were 774,000, with cumulative weekly users of 3 million.

Get back in!

While the BNB price has been consolidating between the $270 and $290 region, the volume decreased. Over the last 24 hours, BNB’s volume had gone down 29.94%, according to 

According to Coinglass, the open futures interest for BNB had increased across most exchanges in the last 24 hours. For the funding rate, the previous decline seemed to be getting back to increases based on data available at the derivative information platform. 

Interestingly, the broader derivatives market had more to show. Coinglass revealed that there had been $1.06 million in 

This indicated that BNB had decreased more than it had tried revival during the period. With BNB decreasing in price at press time, it was likely that more shorts would take profits off the market except a case where the overall crypto market recovers.
