According to an accompanying BNB Chain blog post, the expansion is set to occur by the end of March.
âThe deployment of Joepegs NFT Marketplace and Trader Joe DEX on BNB Chain will be completed before the end of the first quarter of the year,â Trader Joe Co-Founder Crypto Fish said. âBNB Chain is one of the most popular blockchains in the world, currently home to over 1,400 dApps with an active daily user base of over 1 million and we're very excited to introduce the Trader Joe experience to this thriving ecosystem.â
According to DefiLlama, Trader Joe is the top DEX on Avalanche with a Total Value Locked (TVL) of $83 million, including its lending Dapp and upgraded version Joe V2.
DappRadar puts Trader Joe in the one-number spot for Decentralized Applications (dApps) on Avalanche overall, with 62,000 Unique Active Wallets (UAW) in the past month. Joepegs comes in fifth with 14,000 UAW.
In context, PancakeSwap has $3 billion in TVL, accounting for 44% of BNB Chainâs TVL, and 1.4 million UAW in the past month.

Trader Joe and Uniswap arenât the only contenders vying to knock the BNB Chain chefâs hat off PancakeSwapâs head. Baby Doge Swap is counting on the huge following of Baby Doge Coin fanatics to build on its growing TVL of $34 million, while Wombat Exchange is seeking to increase its TVL of $100 million by branching out to an array of other blockchains.
Can PancakeSwap remain master of the BNB Chain kitchen? Will 2023 be the year PancakeSwap hegemony ends? Let the Battle of the DEXes begin!
