In 2025, the blockchain ecosystem is witnessing a significant shift as Solana experiences a downturn while BNB Chain gains traction. Solana's active addresses have plummeted by 63.5% to 2.19 million as of September 24, with new token creation dropping from over 80,000 daily in January to approximately 31,000. In contrast, BNB Chain has seen a surge in activity, reporting 4.8 million daily active addresses by September 25, marking an 84.6% increase since April. Additionally, BNB Chain's daily transactions have risen by 70% to 17 million, and it has attracted $470 million in net inflows from Solana over the past week, indicating a strong 'siphon effect.' This shift highlights the evolving dynamics within the public blockchain landscape as BNB Chain capitalizes on Solana's decline.
