**BNB Coin: Empowering the Binance Ecosystem**
BNB (Binance Coin) is the native cryptocurrency of Binance, one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges. Initially launched in 2017 as an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum blockchain, BNB migrated to Binance's own blockchain, Binance Chain, in 2019.
BNB serves multiple purposes within the Binance ecosystem. It can be used to pay trading fees on the Binance platform, offering users discounts. Additionally, BNB powers the Binance Smart Chain (BSC), a blockchain that supports smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps), making it a key player in the DeFi and NFT spaces.
Beyond Binance, BNB has utility in various real-world scenarios, such as paying for travel bookings, shopping, and participating in token sales on Binance Launchpad. Its deflationary mechanism, achieved through quarterly token burns, reduces supply over time, potentially increasing value.
With strong utility and continuous development, BNB remains a prominent force in the cryptocurrency market.
