It's the cycle.
Coins like BNB might be at dumping today but it won't stop there. It can go on a long bear market again and the price of it would be just as stable as it can be.
However, when the market goes bullish again, everyone will get to see how quick the price of it goes up. At the time of bearish, it's where decisions should be made because it's buy now or miss it.
looks like it will be on hold as BNB price has remained fairly stable so far, now at $526.83 not too bad from the last ATH that BNB has done. Of course, if making a release is very unfortunate because of the opportunity as you said that the market could increase soon, it is indeed better to wait for that opportunity by holding it in place so that the time comes when it increases so that it does not miss the opportunity.
Yeah, it's still one of the altcoins that's near to its ATH. The price isn't that bad to hold on since it's still close to the highest that it made during this bull run.
There's the likely that it will remain there for long and the price of it today is still good as it was before. Those that find it very low might have invested during its high.
And there are those investors that are looking on it for its future. If they think that there's a better future on it, they shall hold and buy more.
