BNB Smart Chain recorded 4.86 million active addresses within a 24-hour period on November 9, 2026. This figure represents the highest level of activity among public blockchains, according to data from DeFiLlama.
The network significantly outperformed its competitors, with Solana ranking second at approximately 1.97 million active addresses. Ethereum followed with 535,100, while the Base layer-2 network recorded 311,800 active addresses.
In comparative terms, BNB Chain demonstrated 2.47 times the activity of Solana and 9.08 times that of Ethereum. The difference between the leader and the runner-up exceeded 2.88 million addresses.
The metric of active addresses tracks wallets that sent or received transactions. While BNB Chain has frequently led these metrics throughout 2025 and 2026, the data may be influenced by automated bots, airdrop participants, and multiple wallets controlled by single users.
BNB Chain, developed by the Binance ecosystem, focuses on high-speed, low-cost transactions. The decentralized exchange PancakeSwap remains a primary driver of user activity, while recent growth has also been observed in smart contract deployments and AI-related tools.
