This image is a summary table of total unique addresses across various blockchain networks, comparing data from April 1, 2024 to May 1, 2024, along with the percentage growth over that one-month period.
Key Insights: Top 3 by Total Addresses (Highlight in Orange):
$BTC BNB Chain:
From 435M to 445M addresses +2% growth
#Polygon (MATIC):
From 413M to 419M +2% growth
$ETH Ethereum:
From 263M to 267M +1% growth Highest Growth Chains (Standouts in Green):
Blast:
From 692K to 1M addresses +45% growth Huge adoption spike, possibly due to ecosystem incentives or hype.
Mantle:
From 1M to 1.4M +36% growth Strong growth for a relatively new L2.
Cardano:
From 4.6M to 5.7M +23% growth Surprising surge in user base activity.
opBNB:
From 774K to 923K +19% growth A BNB sidechain gaining traction.
#Linea :
From 4.9M to 5.8M +18% growth Other Notables: Optimism and Base (Coinbase's L2) saw 3–4% growth — solid, consistent adoption. zkSync, Ronin, and Avalanche show strong mid-tier growth of 5–9%. What This Means: Blast and Mantle are the hottest rising stars in terms of user base expansion. Despite being the largest networks, Ethereum, BNB Chain, and Polygon are growing more slowly, likely due to already large bases. This kind of data is often used by investors, developers, and analysts to identify upcoming ecosystems with strong adoption momentum.
