BNB Chain Dominates DEX Market with Meme Coin Frenzy
Daily trading volume on BNB Chain’s decentralized exchanges (DEXs) surged to $6.05 billion on Oct. 8, marking its highest point since June 2025, according to data from DeFi Llama. While impressive, the figure still trails the record high of $7.05 billion set on June 30.
PancakeSwap Dominates On-Chain Volume
The majority of this volume comes from PancakeSwap, a popular BNB meme coin launchpad, which contributed $4.28 billion in daily DEX trading. Over the past 30 days, PancakeSwap accounted for $78 billion of the BNB Chain’s total $103.13 billion DEX trading volume—roughly 75% of all activity.
Uniswap followed distantly with $1.30 billion in daily volume, while Four.meme, another BNB-based meme coin platform, secured third place with $139.15 million in daily activity. Four.meme’s 30-day trading volume currently stands at $815 million.
Meme Coin Season Shifts from Solana to BNB
Former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) acknowledged the shift in trader interest from Solana-based platforms like Pump.fun to BNB Chain, stating via X (formerly Twitter), “Meme coin season has officially begun on the BNB Chain.”
On-chain analytics from BubbleMaps reveal that over 100,000 traders have interacted with new meme coins on BNB Chain. Of these, around 70% reportedly saw profits.
Profits and Losses in Numbers
One trader managed to generate $10 million in profits, while 44 wallets made over $1 million each. Roughly 900 traders earned at least $100,000. In total, $401 million in profits have been made from meme coin trading on BSC.
Losses have been more limited. Only two wallets recorded losses over $1 million, and just 4,418 wallets lost around $1,000—indicating a generally profitable season for most participants.
