The Story Behind Binance Coin
Launched in 2017 by Binance, BNB began as a utility token for exchange fee discounts. Over time, it evolved into the backbone of the Binance Smart Chain (BSC) a blockchain enabling smart contracts, DeFi, and global payments.
Today, BNB fuels thousands of decentralized applications while maintaining strong demand through regular quarterly token burns that reduce supply and increase value over time.
With real-world adoption and interoperability across chains, BNB continues to power the next generation of decentralized ecosystems.
