| Provider | 30d change | Stablecoin float | Net 7d | 7d change |

Stablecoin float is where dollars are parked, not what they do. A chain can take in a billion that sits idle, and lose float to a single issuer redeeming. The figure is DefiLlama's chain-wide pegged-USD aggregate, every issuer combined; it does not separate a bridge inflow from a native mint, and a dollar bridged to an L2 counts on both chains, so rows are not additive. Read the net dollars with the percentage beside them: the same $400M is a rounding error on Ethereum and a doubling elsewhere.
BNB and Monad are compared on 4 shared OpenChainBench benchmarks. BNB leads on Fastest Chainlink CCIP source chain by end-to-end delivery latency. Monad leads on Fastest Wormhole VAA finalization by source chain, live latency. See the live table on this page for every metric.
On the Fastest Chainlink CCIP source chain by end-to-end delivery latency benchmark, BNB leads at 14.58 s versus Monad at 45.94 s (provisional). Live measurement is updated continuously by the OpenChainBench harness.
On the Fastest Wormhole VAA finalization by source chain, live latency benchmark, Monad leads at 3.61 s (provisional) versus BNB at 3.86 s. Live measurement is updated continuously by the OpenChainBench harness.
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.
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.
