What Is BNB Chain?

BNB Chain is a popular smart contract blockchain that was created by Binance in 2020. It was one of the earliest alt-L1 blockchains created to offer lower transaction fees and faster transaction times than Ethereum. It achieves this by using a Proof of Staked Authority (PoSA) consensus mechanism, a more centralized version of Proof of Stake (PoS). The native token of BNB Chain is BNB. Learn more about BNB Chain on its website.
