Founder of BTC.TOP (B.TOP) Jiang Zhuoer posted that U.S. stock BNC has fallen to the $4.4 support level. He has opened a 5% test position at around $4.5 for a trial buy, expecting BNC could drop as low as its breakout point of $4. Currently, BNC’s mNAV is approximately 49%, holding BNB worth $400 million, while the company’s current market cap is less than $200 million — equivalent to acquiring BNB at a 50% discount.
