On Tuesday, Oct. 7, BNB reached an all-time high of $1,336.57, positioning itself as the third-largest crypto asset, overtaking both XRP and Tether\u2019s USDT.<\/p>\n<p>As BNB started flipping XRP, market momentum took over for both coins. While BNB registered a 5.35% daily gain, XRP fell by 4.59%. At its height, BNB\u2019s market cap reached $185 billion before stabilizing at $180 billion. This level puts it above XRP\u2019s market cap of $173 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Now, traders are asking whether this positioning will continue, or whether the recent BNB rally is a fakeout fueled by speculation.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will BNB market cap surpass XRP in the long run? <\/h2>\n<p>For one, BNB\u2019s recent rally has strong support behind it, both in terms of on-chain metrics and price charts. In the past few days, the token held steady above the $1,200 support, as well as key moving averages. This indicates that buyers are still in the driver\u2019s seat.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, XRP stayed below the crucial $3 resistance level. Moreover, given BNB\u2019s rally, XRP will need its most bullish case to flip BNB again. Still, some experts believe that XRP has a springboard ahead if it manages to reverse the recent decline.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cXRP is also interesting to watch right now, as it keeps testing the structural $3.00 ceiling, and breaking the $3.10\u2013$3.20 range with strong volume would clear immediate resistance and open a move toward $3.30\u2013$3.50,\u201d Arthur Azizov, Founder and Investor at B2 Ventures told crypto.news. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In any case, BNB could also see a minor correction. While most signals lean bullish, the Relative Strength Index at 77.38 indicates slightly overbought conditions.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The BNB market cap broke $180 billion, surpassing both Tether and XRP, but can its dominance continue?
