Binance leads transaction trend
According to the latest data from Coin 98 Analytics, the Binance chain has had significant transaction activity in the first half of the year.
It secured the position of having the second-highest number of transactions among all blockchain networks. Although Solana led the chart, Binance Chain recorded nearly 6 billion transactions during this period.

Binance sees remarkable TVL growth
The analysis of the Total Value Locked (TVL) on the Binance chain, as reported by DeFiLlama, indicated substantial growth over the past few months.
Starting the year with a TVL of around $3.5 billion, the chain has exhibited a steady increase in value locked. As of this writing, its TVL was over $4.8 billion.
While still short of reaching its all-time high, this growth marked a significant improvement from the beginning of the year. It also reflected a robust accumulation of assets within its decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem.
Additionally, the transaction activity on the Binance Chain has remained consistently high. The data showed that daily transactions consistently stayed at over 3 million for most months.
As of this writing, the figures reached over 3.3 million transactions.
These trends in TVL and transaction volume suggest that the chain continues to attract and maintain significant capital and user engagement.

Despite this impressive price rise, the current market analysis suggests that BNB is on a bear trend, as indicated by its Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The RSI was below the neutral line of 50 as of this writing. This positioning signals that the overall momentum is bearish, potentially due to investors taking profits after the significant rise or broader market conditions affecting sentiment.
