BNB Holds $769 as Canadian Banks Launch Digital Dollar Network
techbullion.com reports that Canada’s six largest banks announced a joint blockchain network for digital dollar deposits on September 22. The system, involving BMO, CIBC, RBC, Scotiabank, TD, and National Bank, utilizes blockchain to move money between institutions with fewer steps. OSFI previously ruled that digital deposits count the same as normal ones, removing a legal barrier for banks adopting the technology.
The first phase will test deposit movements between the six banks before connecting to broader digital asset networks. The article highlights Pepeto as a presale meme token with a working security scanner and a cross-chain bridge. Pepeto has collected over $11.1 million in buyer funds at a token price of $0.0000001898.
Its security scanner runs 42 checks on tokens and blocks trades on contracts scoring below safe. The bridge links Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, Base, and Arbitrum in under a minute with no cost. BNB reached $769 on October 1, holding steady through Q3 despite stalling near $800 resistance. SOL sits at $117.66, having stayed above $100 for three months backed by strong DeFi volume.

BNB trades at $769.27 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 63.1%, indicating strong immediate buying pressure. This contrasts with a 4-hour buy ratio of 44.0% and a 24-hour ratio of 47.6%, showing that short-term buying is outpacing the broader daily trend.

This divergence suggests that recent buying activity is accelerating but has not yet offset the net selling pressure seen over the longer timeframe. The cumulative volume delta for 24 hours closed at -$1,296,405, confirming that sellers have dominated the day overall. Spot volume reached $92,179,247 across 577,738 trades in the last day.
