Solana leads blockchains with 28 million active addresses this week
- Solana records highest number of active addresses
- Ethereum grows 8,7% and shows strength among blockchains
- BNB Chain and Tron trail in activity
Solana emerged as the blockchain with the highest activity last week, totaling 28,18 million active addresses, according to Nansen data initially reported by BlockBeats. This volume puts the network ahead of BNB Chain, which accounted for 10,14 million, and Tron, with 5,86 million active addresses.
The survey also highlights the growth of emerging blockchains. SEI and Aptos registered 3,24 million and 2,89 million addresses, respectively, surpassing even Bitcoin, with 2,8 million, and Ethereum, with 2,5 million in the same period.
Although Ethereum ranks lower in the rankings, it posted the highest weekly growth rate: 8,7%. Solana, while leading in absolute numbers, saw a more modest 1,9% growth. This data reinforces that major ecosystems are evolving differently in terms of adoption.
Despite its prominent user activity, Solana lagged behind in trading volume on decentralized exchanges. According to DeFiLlama, BNB Chain led with $3,93 billion processed in 24 hours, followed by Ethereum with $2,34 billion. Solana came in third with $1,796 billion, while Base and SUI rounded out the top five with $5 billion and $1,16 million, respectively.
At the time of reporting, Solana's price was trading at $187,15, down 1% in the last 24 hours. This move reinforces the network's position as a leading player in the cryptocurrency ecosystem, even in the face of market fluctuations.
