By contrast, BNB Chain <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/bscscan.com\/chart\/address\">has<\/a> over 233 million unique addresses, according to BscScan. This implies that BNB Chain is larger than Ethereum as judged by this metric.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the Bitcoin network <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/studio.glassnode.com\/metrics?a=BTC&amp;%3Bm=blockchain.UtxoLossCount&amp;%3Bs=1509303349&amp;%3Bu=1576540800&amp;%3Bzoom=&amp;m=addresses.Count\">has<\/a> over 1 billion unique addresses, making it larger than both of these networks combined.<\/p>\n<p>The statement was made as part of BNB Chain\u2019s \u201cYear in Review.\u201d The post also highlighted other significant milestones that the BNB network has reached over the past year. The network c<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ed out at 9.8 million transactions per day in May and reached 2.2 million daily active users (DAUs) in October, with DAUs being defined as the number of unique addresses per day that interact with a smart contract.<\/p>\n<p>The developers credit the network\u2019s success in 2022 to several initiatives implemented this year. The\u00a0BNB Sidechain protocol allowed decentralized application (Dapp) developers to run their Dapps on separate shards of the network, reducing congestion and lowering transaction costs.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, the team funded a builder grant and $10 million incentive program for Dapp developers, which led to more Dapps being created for BNB Chain and this, in turn, attracted more users.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, \u201csoulbound tokens\u201d were introduced, which allowed users to register wallet addresses for Know Your Customer (KYC) purposes by holding non-transferrable tokens in their wallets. The developers claim that this increased BNB Chain\u2019s reputation in the nonfungible token and Web3 gaming community.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the team credited its growth to the launch of Avenger DAO, an API that alerts users\u00a0of BNB Chain whenever they interact with contracts flagged as malicious. In the team\u2019s view, this made users feel more safe browsing the BNB network, leading to more user retention.<\/p>\n<p>Despite these successes, BNB Chain is still criticized by many in the blockchain community for being too centralized. The post does mention that the network added 23 validators this year and plans to add 60 more in the coming months, which should help to make the network less centralized than it was before. By comparison, Ethereum has over 400,000 validators.<\/p>\n<p><template data-name=\"subscription_form\" data-type=\"markets_outlook\"><\/template><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
