Magnificant times for Binance Coin. As the Binance Smart Chain now processes more transactions than Ethereumand the BSC-based DEX PancakeSwap became the second largest decentralized exchange by trading volume, Ethereum is now under heavy competition, especially on the DeFi sector. Regarding this, it is fitting that Binance Coin claims the third rank in the CMC100 charts, right behind Ethereum.

Again, several altcoins have doubled up this week. These were Crypto.com Coin, PancakeSwap, Ravencoin, OKB, Fantom, and Pundi X.
