BNB vs Sui
BNB leads on 1 of 3 shared benchmarks, Sui on 2. BNB wins on Cheapest blockchain transaction fee, live across L1 and L2 chains ($0.000882 vs $0.00847). Sui wins on Fastest Wormhole VAA finalization by source chain, live latency (2.96 s vs 4.15 s), Fastest LayerZero source chain by end-to-end message delivery (15.00 s vs 31.01 s). Data as of 2026-10-10 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.
Sui
Move-based L1 using Mysticeti BFT consensus over a DAG. Owned-object transactions bypass consensus via Fast Path. Deterministic finality under one second.

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.

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.
