According to blockchain analytics firm Nansen, six major blockchains had more than one million active addresses in March. The "addresses" in this context refer to those that have executed a transaction.

The BNB chain led the pack in active addresses with 13.3 million users. Active wallets on the Solana network increased in March, outpacing other blockchains, including Ethereum.

Meanwhile, on Ethereum, over the last 30 days, zksync and StarkWare have experienced a staggering 1,322% and 805% increase in users, likely due to airdrop farmers bridging to other chains.
