Is this the end of BNB? | June 8th

This week has been nothing but crazy. You'd think the SEC taking on another major crypto exchange would send the market into a frenzy, but guess what? Prices are back to square one, just like a few days ago. Now, here's the million-dollar question: What does that tell us? Despite taking a major hit, investors are keeping their cool. They're betting on Binance to come out on top and they aren’t losing sleep over the market going down the drain like when FTX blew their cover (note: this doesn’t guarantee them winning in the end). We’re all about playing the odds here at Cryptonary, so we’ve come up with three different scenarios for this battle, and set targets for the market for all three.

TLDR 📃

  • The Binance vs SEC battle only fueled how much downside we might have left in the tank. Lower prices are very likely.
  • There are three scenarios for the crypto market, all with different price targets. Buckle up, some might surprise you.
  • BNB is now on our “bearish radar”. We view this token as dangerous for both investors and traders at this time, and for obvious reasons.

Here’s what the 🔮 told us…

mobilehide aligncenter wp-image-274663 size-fullmobileshow aligncenter wp-image-274680 size-full Bitcoin’s price is now directly linked to Binance vs SEC’s battle progression. To understand where we’re going, we’ll need to understand what the possibilities are. However, for a more in-depth look, here's our take on this matter.

Best case (Conviction level of 40%)

Binance settles with the SEC, and Bitcoin bottoms out at ~$25,150.

Base case (Conviction level of 59%)

Binance’s US operations are halted - a hit for Binance, but only a stepback for crypto as a whole. In this case, Bitcoin bottoms out at ~$20,000.

Worst case (Conviction level of 1%)

CZ becomes a criminally-charged citizen, Binance risks bankruptcy and the crypto market is left in ruins. This will result in Bitcoin bottoming out at ~$15,000.

Is there a future for BNB?

mobilehide aligncenter wp-image-274662 size-fullmobileshow aligncenter wp-image-274679 size-full

That depends. Do we believe (and hope) that the battle ends with Binance on top? Absolutely. Should we ignore the possibility that Binance could teeter on the edge of bankruptcy if they do not win? Absolutely not. Our best bet right now is to protect our capital by staying away from BNB. Now, we don't want to rain on your parade, but there's a real possibility, albeit a slim 1% chance, of things going south. And hey, we'd rather dodge this bullet completely.

In the midst of a new lawsuit, this is not the time to get starry-eyed about potential gains. Instead, it looks like BNB is more likely to lose support at $260 and take a dip to $185, as both the bearish sentiment and the (now) bearish market structure point to this direction.

Cryptonary’s take 🧠

Such an event can shower the market with uncertainty. It's enough to make us question everything, right? Should we jump in and invest while the market is down? Should we go all-in or play it safe? Or maybe we should start selling bits and pieces, or even consider cashing out completely? All of that questioning will do nothing more than scramble your judgment. It'll just leave you second-guessing and doubting every move you make, wondering what you should be doing instead of actually doing something. Our take? Sit back, reduce your exposure, stay up-to-date with the Binance vs SEC battle by following Cryptonary, and wait to invest when the direction becomes clearer. Still, a long-term vision shouldn’t keep you from investing - bulls always triumph in the end 🐂.

Action points 🎯

  1. As a Binance user, your priority should be moving your funds out of the exchange. Although we may believe that the battle will end with Binance on top, nothing is really certain in crypto.
  2. Short-term traders or investors should stay off the buys. More downside is coming, so why not wait?
  3. Interested in investing for the long run? The current price action shouldn’t stop you from accumulating.
  4. Got questions? Hit us up on Discord in the “🌎・general or “🆓・alpha” channels. We’re happy to help.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
