What is BNB?
BNB is the native coin of the BNB Chain ecosystem. It's used to pay transaction fees when interacting with BNB Smart Chain (BSC) and opBNB. BNB also acts as a governance token for BNB Chain.
BSC is an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible layer-1 chain. Put simply, that means it supports Ethereum tooling for blockchain apps.
