BNB traders are now concerned that the aforementioned woes might suppress the cryptocurrency’s performance. Its on-chain data already confirms that BNB holder confidence has been declining since its 12 September peak. The weighted sentiment metric was at its lowest weekly point at the time of writing.

Despite the dipping sentiment, BNB still managed to achieve its highest weekly volume in the last 24 hours. This may explain why the price continued to rally, although the lack of enthusiasm suggests that BNB bulls are pulling their punches. It seems to be a reflection of the FUD and concern around Binance’s latest woes.

BNB’s current scenario is reminiscent of how XRP struggled with low demand before the court’s ruling. Perhaps the biggest challenge right now is that Binance’s struggles might lead to its exit from the US market if it fails to meet the SEC’s requirements.

The lengthy battle between Binance US and the SEC has already had a negative impact on its operations. For example, the exchange exceeded $10 billion in trading volume and has since dropped to below $20 million. This reflects the shift that has occurred now that most US based users have pulled back from using Binance.

If Binance US gets booted, there is still the global version of the exchange. However, the impact would likely be severe. A classic example is the thousands of jobs that will reportedly be lost if that happens. While that is a real possibility, there is still the other side of the coin where Binance might get over its current situation.
