BNB Chain’s WAU Crosses 4 Million Mark but Transactions Decline
BNB Chain [BNB] has reported an increase in its weekly active users (WAU) crossing the 4 million mark, according to the weekly Twitter update posted on 30 April. This is a positive development as the figure had previously hovered around 3 million for a while. One possible reason for this increased user activity on the network could be the recent announcement of low gas fees.
However, despite the rise in users, the chain’s weekly transactions declined. As per the tweet, BNB Chain’s weekly transactions crossed 24 million, but the average daily transactions were lower than the previous weeks at 1.17 million. This decline also caused a slight decrease in the chain’s revenue, which was negative.
The decline in transactions also affected the GameFi and NFT ecosystems. According to Dune’s data, BNB Chain’s gaming WAU declined over the past few days, and a similar trend was seen in NFT metrics. BNB’s total NFT trade count and trade volume in USD decreased over the last week.
Despite this, hope remains as a few new Dapp launches on BNB Chain looked encouraging. Web3 dApps such as Ubiloan, Cheelee, Lord of Dragons, and Farmme were recently deployed on the BNB Chain, operating in the GameFi and NFT spaces, which could increase GameFi users and NFT volume in the coming weeks. Additionally, a few other dApps were also launched in the DeFi, SocialFi, and Infra spaces.
