Binance Wallet

Binance appears twice on OpenChainBench: the official BNB Chain RPC endpoints it operates (`bsc-dataseed1.binance.org` and siblings, round-robin) and Binance Wallet, its self-custody Web3 wallet, whose in-app swap routes through one router contract on BNB Chain, Ethereum and Base and settles on on-chain pools.

NOWNodes

Multi-chain node provider covering 110+ blockchains. Key-based REST and WebSocket RPC plus block explorers, with keyless public endpoints on a handful of chains (Ethereum, BNB, Bitcoin) rate-limited to 5 requests per second.

RPC latency

Binance Walletn/aNOWNodesn/a

Latency is conditional on success: the harness times only calls returning a valid fresh block, so a mostly-failing endpoint can post a fast p50. Rows below 50 percent success are degraded; unresponsive probes pin below the table. The All chains aggregate favours single-chain foundation endpoints (Base, Binance, Arbitrum, Optimism, Avalanche officials) since they rank on one chain only; use a chain tab for honest comparison. Dead endpoints (cloudflare-eth POST returns -32603) are excluded.

Every benchmark on this page uses the same open methodology, published at https://openchainbench.com/methodology. Data is CC-BY-4.0. Measurement harnesses are MIT-licensed.

How this pair was selected

Auto-generated pairs require: both providers in the same benchmark for seven consecutive days, at least 1000 samples per provider, observable third-party search demand, and a public /products/[slug] page on OCB. Editorially curated pairs (like this one) may publish early when search demand is high and data is accruing; panels with fewer than 100 samples are shown as provisional. The full pair ledger is versioned in the public repo.
