BNB FAQ
- What is BNB?
- BNB is the native asset of Binance Chain and BNB Smart Chain. It powers transaction fees on the chain and grants trading-fee discounts on the Binance exchange. Launched in 2017 as an ERC-20, it moved to its own chains in 2019–2020.
- What is BNB Chain used for?
- BNB Smart Chain is an EVM-compatible Layer 1 optimised for low-cost DeFi and GameFi. It has lower fees than Ethereum but higher centralisation — validators are a relatively small permissioned set, which is a design trade-off users should understand.
- Are there regulatory concerns around Binance?
- Binance settled a $4.3B US case in 2023 over anti-money-laundering violations and operates under a monitorship. This is specific to the exchange entity; BNB the token continues to trade, but US-regulated exchanges have historically not listed it.
- Does BNB have a burn schedule?
- Binance runs a quarterly burn of BNB targeting a supply reduction from the genesis 200M to 100M over time. Auto-burn replaced the earlier profit-linked mechanism. Scarcity narrative is real but does not translate directly to price action.
