Binance BNB Chain Leads in Active Address Metric
Recent data from Coin98 has revealed that the Binance BNB chain has emerged as the top blockchain network with the highest number of daily active users. Surpassing popular blockchains like Polygon and Ethereum, the BNB chain boasts over 1 million daily active users, which is double the number of the second-ranking chain.
Upon closer inspection of the BNB chain addresses on Bscscan, it is evident that the network’s active addresses have been on the rise. Despite reaching its highest number of active addresses in March, with over 1.9 million, the current count still exceeds the numbers recorded in January.
BNB Chain Unique Addresses Rise
According to data from Messari, the Binance BNB chain has cumulatively onboarded 274 million unique users, surpassing Ethereum’s count of 226 million. Notably, the BNB chain has been onboarding users at an average month-on-month rate of 6% over the past year, while Ethereum’s rate has declined by an average of 5%.
Additionally, BSCscan data reveals that the BNB chain has experienced a daily increase of over 300,000 unique addresses. Data from Flipside also indicates that the BNB chain had 10.36 million unique addresses in February alone, highlighting the network’s impressive growth and user adoption.
Binance BNB Price Trend Remains Bearish
Despite the positive growth and adoption metrics of the Binance BNB chain, its price has yet to reflect this trend. At the time of writing, BNB is trading at around $312, experiencing a minor loss in value. Furthermore, the coin is currently stuck in a bearish trend as it has been unable to rise above the neutral line on the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
One possible explanation for the disconnect between the Binance BNB chain’s impressive growth metrics and its current price could be a decline in transaction fees. Recent data from the chain indicates that there has been a decrease in transaction fees in 2023, with the fee standing at over 1,800 at the time of writing, relatively low compared to the same period in 2022.
This decline in transaction fees could potentially impact the price of BNB, as lower fees may result in reduced revenue for the network and its validators.
