BNB, otherwise referred to as ‘Binance Coin’ is the native utility token of the Binance exchange, the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world. Since its inception in 2017, Binance has become one of the largest brands in the blockchain industry. Aside from being the largest crypto exchange, it has launched an entire ecosystem of crypto-related functionalities.
Binance coin is an integral component of this ecosystem. Initially, BNB started out as an ERC-20 token as it was built on the Ethereum network. However, after the launch of Binance Chain mainnet in April 2019, the BNB tokens were swapped from ERC-20 and the Ethereum blockchain to BEP-2 tokens and hosted on the Binance Chain instead. Running parallel to the Binance Chain is the Binance Smart Chain (BSC), an EVM-compatible network that relies on a new consensus mechanism called Parlia. Parlia is a Proof-of-Staked Authority (PoSA) consensus that has elements of both Proof-of-Stake (PoS) and Proof-of-Authority (PoA).
Binance coin (BNB) is one of the largest cryptocurrencies in the world by market cap. You can use Australian dollars when buying BNB coin on the Swyftx cryptocurrency exchange. Swyftx offers users a safe, secure, and easy-to-use platform to buy and sell BNB tokens and a number of other cryptocurrency coins.
