If this one do not work… (i did not test it)…

$w.onReady(function () {
  {setInterval(async function () {
      let myMSB = $w("#statebox10")
      if (myMSB.currentState === "1")  {await myMSB.changeState("2");}
      else                             {await myMSB.changeState("1");}
      console.log(myMSB.currentState)
   }, 5000);
});

You can also do it like this…

$w.onReady(function () {
   setInterval(()=> {
      let myMSB = $w("#statebox10")
      if (myMSB.currentState === "1") {
         myMSB.changeState("2"), console.log(myMSB.currentState);
      }
      else {myMSB.changeState("1"), console.log(myMSB.currentState);}
   },5000);
});

Found an SYNTAX-MISTAKE here…

--> { <-- not needed  setInterval(async function () {

or trying this method… (your first try)

$w.onReady(function () {
   setInterval(()=> {
      let myMSB = $w("#statebox10")
      if (myMSB.currentState === "1") {
         myMSB.changeState("2").then(()=>{console.log(myMSB.currentState);})
      }
      else {myMSB.changeState("1").then(()=>{console.log(myMSB.currentState);})
   },5000);
});
