Bitnance Coin (BNB) jumped more than 20%

In the last 24 hours, the Bitcoin price has slightly dropped from $3,860 to $3,770, struggling to demonstrate strength at the $4,000 resistance level. Despite the lack of momentum on the price trend of Bitcoin, several crypto tokens in the likes of Binance Coin (BNB) and Enjin Coin (ENJ) have recorded 15 percent gains against the U.S. dollar and BTC.

Historically, most tokens and small market cap cryptocurrencies have tended to record intensified losses in the direction headed by BTC. When Bitcoin records a minor loss, tokens tend to record intensified losses against the USD and when the dominant cryptocurrency rises in price, tokens demonstrate large gains on the upside.

BNB is currently up 20% as it hits an 8 month high of $13.53. Binance boss CZ appears to have taken over from Justin Sun for volume of twitter posts in any given day; Either way his exchange backed token is flying at the moment as it surges past Stellar and Tron to take eighth spot by market cap which is currently $1.7 billion. Changpeng Zhao’s current AMA and recent DEX announcements are driving momentum for BNB. Tron is the only other altcoin in the green in the top ten as it made almost 3% over the past 24 hours.
