$BNB

BNB, originally Binance Coin and now rebranded as "Build and Build," is the native cryptocurrency of the BNB Chain ecosystem. Launched by the Binance exchange in 2017, it initially offered trading fee discounts on the platform.

Today, BNB's utility has expanded significantly. It powers the BNB Smart Chain (BSC), enabling fast and low-cost transactions, smart contract execution, and decentralized applications (dApps). BNB holders can use it to pay transaction fees, participate in network governance, stake for rewards, and engage in various DeFi activities. Binance also conducts regular "BNB burns," reducing the total supply to create scarcity and potentially increase value.
