Top Altcoin Networks Used in the Last Week Revealed – Ethereum in Sixth Place – Here’s the Surprising List

Recent data shared by cryptocurrency analysis platform Nansen has revealed user mobility on public blockchains.

According to the 7-day active address count, Solana continues to lead by a wide margin with over 24 million addresses, followed by Tron, Base, BNB Chain and Aptos.

Here are the blockchains and numbers with the most active addresses in the last 7 days:

• Solana – 24,215,077
• Tron – 5,851,957
• Base – 5,420,215
• BNB Chain – 5,243,621
• Aptos – 4,889,094
• Ethereum – 1,874,615
• Polygon – 1,837,339
• Sei v2 – 1,088,095
• Arbitrum – 1,032,622
• Ronin – 532,290
• Optimism – 493,944
• Sonic – 360,666
• Unichain – 327,753
• Gravity – 327,048
• Berachain – 232,190
• Nearby – 717,249
• Cell – 699,193
• Stellar – 148,323
• Blast – 26,450
• Victory – 80,987

It is noteworthy that the network of Ethereum, the world’s largest altcoin, is not the network with the most active addresses. The reason for this is that the ETH network is slow and expensive. On the other hand, layer-2 networks, which can be explained as performing transactions on an external network and finalizing them on the Ethereum network, maintain their popularity. These networks include Base, Arbitrum and Optimism.

The reason for the popularity of Tron, which ranks second, is that most of the transactions of USDT, the world’s largest stablecoin, take place on the Tron network.
