About BNB
Binance Coin (BNB) is the native cryptocurrency of the Binance ecosystem, primarily used for transaction fees on the Binance exchange and within the broader Binance Smart Chain (BSC) network. Originally launched in 2017 on the Ethereum blockchain, BNB later migrated to its own blockchain, enhancing scalability and transaction efficiency. BNB holders benefit from discounts on trading fees, exclusive token launches, and a variety of services within the Binance ecosystem, making it a versatile asset. Beyond Binance, BNB is widely accepted for various use cases, including payments, travel bookings, and more. Its limited supply and burn mechanism contribute to BNB’s value as a deflationary asset.
