BNB’s Short-term Forecast Turns Bearish as BSC Network Upgrade Looms

2025/12/11 20:31

BNB’s market structure weakened after the token fell below its 30-day simple moving average at $892 and the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level at $874. The breakdown shifts near-term sentiment to the downside as traders reassess risk ahead of the upcoming BNB Smart Chain (BSC) network upgrade.

BNB Slips Below Key Technical Levels

BNB’s failure to hold the $874 support level presents a challenge for bulls attempting to stabilize the trend. The move below the 30-day SMA confirms weakening momentum and exposes the token to deeper retracement levels.

The MACD histogram has turned positive at +8.36 but remains below the signal line — a sign that bullish strength is still insufficient for a sustained recovery. Meanwhile, the 14-day RSI sits at 47.51, leaving room for additional downside without entering oversold territory.

If buyers cannot reclaim $874, BNB risks a retest of the 38.2% Fibonacci level at $839, a zone that previously served as a structural pivot for short-term price direction.

Binance announced that the BSC network will undergo scheduled maintenance on December 16, temporarily pausing deposits and withdrawals. While network upgrades typically improve security, performance, and long-term usability, short-term traders often reduce exposure during maintenance windows due to execution risk and reduced liquidity.

This pattern has played out across multiple upgrade cycles: long-term fundamentals may improve, but pre-upgrade periods tend to draw defensive positioning from traders seeking to avoid volatility around temporary service disruptions.

The current sell pressure around BNB aligns with this behavior, reinforcing the need for buyers to regain lost technical levels before sentiment deteriorates further.

How Outset PR Uses Market Signals to Inform Narrative Strategy

Periods around upgrades, liquidity shifts, or macro catalysts often reshape how audiences absorb information. Outset PR incorporates these dynamics into its communication strategy, grounding its campaigns in observable market conditions rather than broad thematic messaging.

The agency tracks ongoing developments — including technical updates like the BSC upgrade — to understand how timing and sentiment influence message effectiveness. Its Outset Data Pulse intelligence monitors media trendlines and traffic flows, helping determine when narratives have the highest probability of gaining traction. The Syndication Map adds another layer, identifying which publications generate the widest downstream distribution across platforms such as CoinMarketCap and Binance Square.

By aligning communication with market behavior, Outset PR ensures that narratives remain relevant and appropriately timed, especially during periods when traders recalibrate their positions around upgrades or structural shifts.

Outlook: Weak Momentum Until BNB Regains $874

BNB now trades in a narrow range with limited bullish momentum and clear resistance overhead. Reclaiming $874 is critical for invalidating the current bearish setup. Failure to do so would increase the probability of a drop toward $839.

With a major network upgrade approaching and short-term sentiment skewed defensive, BNB remains vulnerable unless buyers reassert control at established pivot levels.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
