- BNB Chain’s DEX volume hit $13.31B, topping Ethereum by 7.9x and Solana by 5.7x—signaling a major user shift in on-chain trading.
- Daily transactions on BNB Chain soared to a record 14.8M, with 470 K+ new wallets, reflecting explosive growth and adoption.
- A breakout from a 3-year triangle has analysts eyeing $2K to $4,280 for BNB, boosted by ETF filings and eased regulatory pressure.
BNB Chain surged past competitors in on-chain decentralized exchange (DEX) trading volume, hitting $13.31 billion on May 26, 2025. This volume outpaced Ethereum and Solana by multiple folds, signaling dominant user activity and ecosystem growth.
BNB Chain Overtakes Ethereum and Solana in DEX Transactions
BNB Chain dominated 7.9 times the volume of Ethereum DEX and 5.7 times that of Solana and entrenched its dominance in decentralized trading. From February through mid-April, BNB and Ethereum alternated in volume dominance, with Solana maintaining steady activity.
However, starting in early May, BNB volume surged dramatically, reaching over $13 billion by May 26—a 160% increase in just ten days. Solana also grew sharply but lagged, while Ethereum’s volume remained below $2 billion despite consistent participation.
Such growth highlights the impact of Binance Wallet and Binance Alpha, which drive liquidity and trading throughput across BNB’s ecosystem. This momentum illustrates a clear shift in user preference toward scalable, high-throughput networks.
Transaction Records and Network Scalability Confirm BNB’s Momentum
BNB Smart Chain hit a record 14.8 million daily transactions on May 30, 2025. The network’s average block time of 1.5 seconds and efficient processing sustained throughput under heavy loads. New addresses surged past 470,000 on the same day, underscoring accelerating adoption and ecosystem expansion.
This milestone follows steady growth since March, with transactions climbing from under 5 million to nearly 15 million in just two months. The data confirms BNB’s status as a top-performing blockchain with scalable infrastructure and growing real-world utility.
BNB Breakout and Regulatory Wins Propel Price Targets Toward $4,280
Long-term price expansion is gaining traction after BNB broke out from a three-year consolidation triangle, according to Crypto Patel. The breakout above $500 triggered an 86% gain in the first leg, with five technical targets laid out, culminating at $4,280—a 1,346% rally potential from the base zone. This pattern mirrors BNB’s historic 2021 breakout, supported by Fibonacci extensions and institutional volume inflows.
BNB’s decade-long ascending channel remains intact, with a key support level near $320 and an invalidation threshold at $470. Meanwhile, regulatory headwinds eased after the SEC dropped its case against Binance. VanEck’s filing for a spot BNB ETF and expanded US exchange listings further reinforce bullish sentiment. Patel emphasized these catalysts make $2,000 a realistic target for this cycle, with long-term projections surpassing $5,000 entering mainstream discussion.
