BNB Use Case
Binance Exchange
Projects on the Binance exchange will be paid for listing fees in BNB coins. However, the amount of the specific listing will not be announced but will be donated entirely to the Binance Charity platform from October 8, 2018.
Exchange Fees: On the Binance exchange, BNB coins will be used to reduce transaction fees. The specific fee reductions are as follows:
In addition, Binance also applies a discount for VIP accounts to enjoy the appropriate preferential fees available in Binance’s trading services, including margin trading.
Binance Smart Chain
This is considered as one of the biggest use cases that brought BNB a huge amount of growth. And that is the Binance Smart Chain ecosystem.
The similarity of BNB with ETH in the Ethereum network is that they are both used as a means of payment and are considered the main currency for the entire BSC ecosystem.
Used like Binance NFT Marketplace settlement coins, in the lending platform they are treated as collateral.
Binance DEX
To avoid spam on Binance DEX, according to the listing proposal, if you want projects listed on Binance DEX, you need to send an additional 1000 BNB. But if the project is approved, 1000 BNB is like the deposit, which is returned to the project. Otherwise, the project will lose 1000 BNB.
As mentioned above, in order for the project to be listed on the Binance DEX, it is necessary to deposit an additional 1000 BNB.
Binance Launchpad
Through Binance Launchpad, to have a high investment opportunity, investors need to hold BNB coin. If they have already made one investment in the project, they can only buy tokens with BNB coin.
Payments

Coin burning mechanism
In order for any asset to rise in price, it would have to cause supply to decrease and demand to increase, making competition for that asset even rarer and more difficult.
Binance has set up a plan to burn BNB every quarter based on the volume of BNB redeemed after deducting 20% of the profit. This will continue until 50% of the total supply of BNB (equivalent to 100 million BNB) is burned. All these transactions are recorded on the blockchain and will circulate the remaining 100 million BNB at the end.
Project team
This is one of the largest exchanges today, so it is not surprising that Binance Coin has been able to recruit a lot of potential developers despite its short time of establishment. They are important factors contributing to the success of BNB in particular, as well as the Binance ecosystem in general, not to mention the merits of CEO Changpeng Zhao.
This is the captain of a large ship called Binance. He has been with other sailors on the ship to research and launch the first coin under his own brand. Not only that, Binance also has a team of advisors who are legal and financial consultants with many years of experience.
They have a duty to be ready to solve any customer’s question, no matter how small. That further increases the prestige and strengthens Binance’s strong position in the market today, helping this already-noticed project attract even more investment.
