Does Binance Us Use BSC?

Binance US, the American offshoot of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, does not currently use the Binance Smart Chain (BSC). However, that could change in the future.

Binance US CEO Catherine Coley said in an interview with The Block that the exchange is “looking into” using BSC.

The Binance Smart Chain is a blockchain that is compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). This means that any Ethereum-based decentralized application (dapp) can be run on BSC.

The Binance Smart Chain also has its own native token, BNB.

NOTE: WARNING: Binance US does not use Binance Smart Chain (BSC). BSC is a separate blockchain platform, which is not compatible with the services offered by Binance US. Therefore, users should not attempt to use BSC in any way or form on the Binance US platform.

The main advantage of using BSC is that it is much faster and cheaper to transact than Ethereum. This is because BSC uses a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus algorithm instead of Ethereum’s Proof-of-Work (PoW) algorithm.

Another advantage of BSC is that it is backed by the resources of the Binance ecosystem. This includes the liquidity of the Binance Coin (BNB) token and the expertise of the Binance team.

So far, there are no concrete plans for Binance US to use the Binance Smart Chain. However, it is something that the exchange is exploring.

If Binance US does decide to use BSC, it would be a major boost for the adoption of this emerging blockchain platform.
