What is BNB Chain?

BNB Chain is a community-driven, open-source layer 1 blockchain ecosystem with EVM compatibility, low gas fees, and sub-second finality. In February 2022, Binance merged the Binance Smart Chain and the Binance Chain to form the new BNB Chain. BNB retains Ethereum Virtual Machine compatibility, implements consensus mechanisms, and has evolved into a multi-chain hub. It is one of the world's largest cryptocurrency ecosystems, with its native token BNB serving as the network's utility token for transaction fees and staking.
