BNB Chain has recently outpaced Solana, achieving the highest 24-hour trading volume on Decentralized Exchanges (DEX).
The Notable Growth of BNB Chain
According to data from DeFiLlama, the transaction volume of this Layer 1 blockchain has demonstrated a significant increase of 13.27% compared to the previous week, culminating in a trading volume of $1.637 billion.

This surge can be attributed to BNB Chain’s ability to capitalize on the current suboptimal performance of other major blockchains, such as Solana and Ethereum.
Furthermore, Changpeng Zhao (CZ) has played a pivotal role in invigorating the BNB Chain ecosystem through several strategic initiatives. These include the promotion of memecoin platforms and the utilization of Binance Wallet as an intermediary for TGEs of DEX tokens, such as Bubblemaps BMT and MyShell SHELL. These efforts aim to revitalize the ecosystem. Additionally, Binance has maintained a consistent schedule of airdrops and launchpool events, effectively retaining BNB holders.
While on-chain data indicates robust activity within the BNB Chain, it is evident that the ecosystem’s projects benefit considerably from CZ’s catalytic actions. Moreover, the memecoin $TUT on the BNB Chain recently experienced a fivefold increase in value, triggered by the appearance of its ticker in a video reposted by CZ.
