Read this as history, not a forecast. The start date decides most of the result: move it on the chart and the order can flip. These are also coins that are large today; ones that faded are not on this page, which makes any comparison of survivors look better than picking coins at the time would have.

Questions

Which has performed better, Solana or BNB?
From August 11, 2020 to October 24, 2026, BNB returned +3,374% and Solana returned +3,010%. Across the 5 full calendar years they share, the higher return was Solana in 2 and BNB in 3. The result depends heavily on the start date, which the chart lets you move, and it describes the past rather than what comes next.
Which fell further in its worst stretch?
Over the same period, Solana fell −96% from November 6, 2021 to December 29, 2022 and BNB fell −71% from May 3, 2021 to June 18, 2022. Falls are measured on daily closes, peak to trough.
Do Solana and BNB move together?
Day to day, Solana and BNB have moved partly together: the correlation of their daily returns is 0.55, where 1 is perfect lockstep and 0 is no relation. The more closely coins move together, the less holding them side by side spreads risk.
Why does the comparison start on August 11, 2020?
It is the first day we hold a daily close for both coins, so each one is measured over exactly the same days. The table of calendar years uses each coin's own full history instead, which is why some coins have earlier years than others.
Where do the Solana vs BNB numbers come from?
Daily closing prices of each coin's USDT pair on Binance. Returns are price changes only: they leave out fees, taxes and anything earned from staking. A year that is still running, or that starts part-way through a coin's data, is shown in italics and not counted when years are compared.

Disclaimer: This page is educational and does not constitute financial advice or a recommendation to buy either coin. It describes past price moves from daily closes on Binance and leaves out fees, taxes and staking rewards. Past performance does not predict future results. Cryptocurrency prices are volatile; never invest more than you can afford to lose.
