October on BNB Chain, measured straight from the chain and set next to the others:
• Speed: one block every 0.45 seconds. It was 3.00 seconds for five years. Ethereum: 12.
• Cost: a basic transfer is $0.0008 today. On Ethereum: $0.0098.
• Binance withdrawals in one day: about 314,000 on BNB Chain, about 44,000 on Ethereum.
• Lifetime: Binance's hot wallets have sent 362.7 million transactions on BNB Chain and about 106 million on Ethereum, which had a three year head start.
• Tokenized real world assets: 2.12 million holders on BNB Chain. Solana 842,000. Ethereum 289,000.
• The typical USDT withdrawal: $50. One in three ends in .99, because the fee is one cent.
• Poison: 1.1% of stablecoin transfers on BNB Chain are fake zero transfers. On Ethereum: 13.5%.
No press releases. Just public nodes and patience.
More in November. 🔶
Address poisoning, measured on four chains.
The trick: a scammer sends you a fake 0 USDT transfer, so a look alike address appears in your history, with the same first and last characters as one you use. One careless copy later, the money is gone.
We sampled 24 hours of USDT and USDC transfers on each chain. Share that were exactly zero:
• Ethereum: 13.5%, about 177,000 a day
• Base: 2.7%
• BNB Chain: 1.1%
• Arbitrum: 0.4%
On BNB Chain, all 40 zero transfers we opened were sent by a stranger, not the account owner. The textbook pattern.
Ethereum's poison rate is 12 times BNB Chain's, even though a basic transfer on BNB Chain costs about 12 times less ($0.0008 vs $0.0098 today).
It is not small. A USENIX Security 2025 study counted 270 million attempts and 17 million victims on Ethereum and BNB Chain from 2022 to 2024, with at least $83.8M stolen.
What's being done:
• Binance's security researchers built a detector that pairs look alike addresses with their targets and feeds them to HashDit.
• Trust Wallet checks every destination against a database of known scam and look alike addresses before you sign, on 32 chains including BNB Chain.
• On Binance, you can lock withdrawals to an address whitelist.
Your part:
1. Never copy an address from your history.
2. Use an address book or a whitelist.
3. Read the whole address.
Stay SAFU. 🔶
We checked one number three times this month: people holding tokenized real world assets on BNB Chain.
10 Oct: 2,021,737
13 Oct: 2,041,462
26 Oct: 2,119,204
About 6,000 new holders a day.
Ethereum's total, for scale: 288,631.
We read BNB Chain's gas price on the 25th of every month since January 2025. Median of real transactions:
Jan 2025: 1 gwei. A simple transfer: $0.014
May 2025: 0.11 gwei. $0.0015
Oct 2025 to today: 0.05 gwei. $0.0009
17 times cheaper, with BNB higher than it was then.

Every block on BNB Chain burns part of its gas fee. Automatically, forever. We watched 100 blocks in a row: all 100 burned.
Last 7 days: 402 BNB.
At that pace:
1 day: 57
1 month: 1,724
1 year: 20,977 BNB, about $15M
And that is before the quarterly burn. 🔥
Sunday. Stock markets closed. Banks closed.
In the last 24 hours, Binance matched 167 million trades. Spot: 30 million. Futures: 137 million.
That is 1,937 trades every second, on a weekend.
Crypto never clocks out. 🔶
We counted every transaction on two chains over the last 24 hours.
BNB Chain: about 16.3 million.
Ethereum: 1.67 million.
Almost ten to one. Most of them cost less than a cent.
Built for everyone. 🔶
Binance connects 139 blockchains. We mapped all 979 coins and every network they can travel on.
The busiest road is BNB Chain: 380 coins move on it. Ethereum: 296. Solana: 57.
And sending USDT out over it costs 1 cent, the cheapest of 19 routes. 🔶
We put Binance's tokenized stocks to a test.
19 stocks. Every minute of yesterday's Wall Street session. 7,410 comparisons with the real share price.
Median gap: 0.10%. Ten cents on a $100 stock, and most of that is just USDT vs USD.
New York closes. They keep trading. 🔶
Every day this week, Binance traded about $9.5 billion in spot.
The next six biggest exchanges in the world, added together: $8.7 billion.
One exchange, bigger than the next six combined.
Liquidity is trust, measured in dollars. 🔶
The most traded stock on Binance this week was not Nvidia. Not Apple.
It was SpaceX: $142 million in 7 days.
Then SanDisk, then Circle. Nvidia came 6th.
bStocks launched in June and just passed $1 billion in assets, the fastest tokenized stocks ever to get there. 🚀
