BNB Chain (BNB)

Originally launched as Binance Smart Chain, BNB Chain is a fast, low-fee blockchain optimized for decentralized applications, especially in DeFi and gaming. Backed by Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange, BNB Chain benefits from strong liquidity, high transaction throughput, and seamless integration with centralized exchange tools. It’s EVM-compatible, allowing developers to easily port over Ethereum projects. BNB serves both as the native gas token and as a key utility token across the Binance ecosystem, powering governance, trading discounts, and ecosystem incentives.
