The dollar stables on BNB Chain have 18 decimals, not 6: 10 USDT is "10000000000000000000". Read decimals from the token row, as everywhere.
Swaps under $100 are not indexed
Section titled “Swaps under $100 are not indexed”The tape records swaps of $100 or more only (since it started). Every /v1/chains/bnb/* and /v1/candles?chain=56 answer carries ingestFloor (minTradeUsd: 100). Token volumes, trade counts and wallet histories on this chain leave out the small swaps; say so when you show them. Quotes and swaps are not affected.
Chord contracts
Section titled “Chord contracts”The same proxies as every EVM chain Chord routes on: router 0x1b1fee89a381e595fe6536b99ba91f3e16e9601a, fee collector 0x6c66229675fd9ceda9a9b2ea2bd983b3d8255834, adapter registry 0x6cf25d2af1a58d7094b0ac253ae616a8e1f2ea3f. Adapters come with every quote. Protocol fee: 5 bps by default, 0 on the dollar stables and WBNB.

The database keeps the raw tape for about 3 days on this chain; a wallet’s older days come from Chord’s data lake, and the answer’s window and history say which. There are no top-wallet, holder or liquidity boards for BNB Chain yet.
