BNB vs Internet Computer
BNB leads on 2 of 3 shared benchmarks, Internet Computer on 1. BNB wins on Fastest L1 blockchain finality, live wall-clock measurement per chain (0.74 s vs 0.93 s), Cheapest blockchain to deploy a token, live USD cost per L1 chain ($0.0172 vs $0.6724). Internet Computer wins on Cheapest blockchain transaction fee, live across L1 and L2 chains ($0.000240 vs $0.000670). Data as of 2026-11-14 UTC.
BNB
Proof-of-Staked-Authority L1 with 21 active validators rotating per epoch. Probabilistic finality reached after roughly 2 blocks. Block time around 3 seconds.
Internet Computer
The Internet Computer: subnets of nodes run canister smart contracts and sign state with chain-key cryptography; ICP pays ledger fees and is converted into cycles for compute.

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.
