What is Binance Coin (BNB)?

Binance Coin (BNB) is the native cryptocurrency of the Binance crypto exchange. The coin was originally launched as an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum network, but was eventually moved to Binance's own blockchain called the Binance Smart Chain (BSC). The Binance chain was founded in 2017 and grew to become the world's largest crypto exchange in an extremely short period of time.

Additional Information about Binance Coin (BNB)

What is the BNB Smart Chain (BSC)?

The Binance Smart Chain (BSC) is a blockchain service from Binance that allows developers to create decentralized applications (dApps) that use smart contracts.

The smart chain was launched to address limitations of the BNB Beacon Chain. Where the Beacon Chain was created to regulate governance and staking, BSC was developed to support smart contract functionalities. In addition, BNB is now also EVM-compatible (the Ethereum blockchain). This made it possible to run decentralized applications (DApps) and DeFi projects on BSC.

BNB Beacon Chain vs. BNB Smart Chain (BSC)

- BNB Beacon Chain: Uses the BEP-2 standard and is focused on staking and governance.

- BNB Smart Chain (BSC): Supports smart contracts, uses the BEP-20 standard and is compatible with Ethereum tools such as MetaMask.

Both blockchains operate independently of each other, but in 2023 Binance announced that the BNB Beacon Chain would be phased out and its functions would be moved to BSC. This migration, called the BNB Chain Fusion, took place in 2024.

How does the BNB Smart Chain work?

BNB Smart Chain uses a Proof of Staked Authority (PoSA) consensus mechanism. Validators stake BNB to verify transactions and receive transaction fees as a reward. No new BNB is mined because BNB is not inflationary. In fact, regular coin burns reduce the total supply.

BSC supports the BEP-20 standard, which is comparable to Ethereum's ERC-20. This makes it easy for developers to create tokens, ranging from stablecoins to NFTs. Transactions on BSC require a small amount of BNB as a gas fee, comparable to ETH on Ethereum.

DeFi on the Binance Smart Chain

BNB Smart Chain offers support for DeFi applications such as PancakeSwap, where users can trade digital assets and do yield farming. Many assets from other blockchains, such as BTC and ETH, exist on BSC as wrapped tokens, which are linked to the value of the original assets.

Who are the founders of BNB?

The Binance exchange and BNB were founded by Changpeng Zhao (CZ), the CEO of Binance and a well-known name in the crypto industry. The Binance Coin was launched in 2017 through an Initial Coin Offering (ICO), in which Binance raised $15 million, according to Binance. However, according to a 2023 Forbes investigation, the actual amount would only be around $6 million.

What can you use BNB for?

1. Discounts on Binance transactions: 25% discount on spot and margin trades, 10% discount on futures.

2. Additional discounts for large traders: The more you trade and the more BNB you own, the lower your fees.

3. Use on PancakeSwap and Binance DEX: Many DeFi projects on BSC require BNB as a trading currency or gas fee.

4. Games and DApps: BNB is used in games and other applications on BNB Chain.

5. Initial Exchange Offerings (IEOs): By locking up BNB, you can participate in exclusive token sales on Binance Launchpad.

6. Binance Visa Card: Pay at shops and get up to 8% cashback in BNB.

7. Donations and payments: Support for Binance Charity, Travala.com and Binance Liquid Swap.

8. Regulations: BNB is banned in some countries, such as the US, because it is considered a security.

The History of BNB

Binance Coin was launched by the Binance exchange in 2017 through an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) as an ERC20 token. That gave early investors a chance to grab BNB at a super low price — just $0.15. You could get 20,000 BNB for 1 BTC or 2,700 BNB for 1 Ether. Binance used the funds to build and promote the platform.

These days, Binance Coin (BNB) is a major player in the crypto world, and BSC has grown into one of the biggest ecosystems. BNB is used within that system to cut down trading fees and to trade on decentralized apps (DEXs) like PancakeSwap.

Since 2017, BNB has come a long way. Here's a quick timeline:

  • 2017: Binance Coin launches on the Ethereum network as an ERC20 token through an ICO. The sale raises millions of dollars to help develop Binance.
  • 2019: Binance launches its own blockchain called the BNB Beacon Chain and moves BNB from Ethereum to its new chain. BNB becomes a BEP2 token, the native token format for the Beacon Chain.
  • 2020: Binance Chain sees big growth and the Binance Smart Chain is introduced. This new chain supports smart contracts and DeFi services. The BEP20 token format also launches, allowing new tokens to be built on the chain.
  • 2021: During the 2021 bull run, Binance Coin hits a new all time high of $670 thanks to the growing popularity of BSC and PancakeSwap.
  • 2023: Forbes publishes a critical report about the original ICO. There are also concerns about BNB distribution, with many tokens held in wallets controlled by Binance.
  • 2024: The BNB Beacon Chain gets shut down. It’s fully disconnected from Binance Smart Chain, and Binance Coin along with BEP20 tokens keep running only on BSC. BNB hits a new high close to $740.
  • 2025: Binance is forced to pull out of multiple EU countries due to the MiCA regulation, which experts say they aren’t fully complying with at that time.

Benefits of Binance Coin (BNB)


  1. Lower trading fees: Using BNB on the Binance exchange gives you a discount on transaction fees.
  2. Used all over the Binance ecosystem: BNB plays a key role on BSC, especially for trading BEP20 tokens on decentralized platforms like PancakeSwap. You can also use BNB to create NFTs and set up smart contracts.
  3. Launchpad and IEO perks: If you hold BNB, you get early access to Initial Exchange Offerings (IEOs) through Binance Launchpad.
  4. High liquidity: BNB is one of the biggest cryptocurrencies and has super high trading volumes. It’s easy to buy or sell.
  5. Regular token burns: Every quarter, Binance burns a portion of BNB tokens, cutting down the supply. That can make the token more scarce and maybe boost the price.
  6. Works on multiple blockchains: BNB is available on BNB Smart Chain (as BEP20) and can be bridged to other networks, making it even more versatile.

Drawbacks of Binance Coin (BNB)


  1. Centralized control: It’s been suggested that a big chunk of BNB is managed by Binance, which raises questions about how decentralized it really is.
  2. Reliance on Binance as a company: BNB is closely tied to the Binance exchange. That means whatever happens to Binance will probably affect Binance Coin too.
  3. Regulatory risks: Binance has faced legal challenges around the world. If they don’t comply with EU MiCA regulations, they could face fines or restrictions, which could also impact BNB.
  4. Competition from other ecosystems: The Binance Smart Chain offers smart contracts and DeFi services, but it’s up against big names like Ethereum, Solana, and Avalanche.
