What Is Binance (BNB)?
Binance is the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world that was introduced in 2017 by Changpeng "CZ" Zhao. Since its launch, Binance has evolved to more than a digital exchange, and it currently has its own blockchain network called BNB Chain. The chain is a merge from two blockchains Binance Chain and Binance Smart Chain. Though the blockchain networks of Binance are quite new, they have a large user base, because they have relatively fast speed and low gas fee.
The BNB token was originally released as an ERC-20 token to raise funds for the Binance exchange in 2017. Then, when Binance launched their own networks, BNB with BEP token standards was released as the native token, and holders of ERC-compliant BNB could exchange for BEP-compliant tokens at a 1:1 ratio.
How Binance (BNB) Works
Binance is an ecosystem of solutions for digital assets that consists of CEX, DEX, blockchain networks, cryptocurrencies, etc. BNB Chain, the main blockchain network, uses the Proof of Stake (PoS) and Proof of Authority (PoA) consensus mechanisms. It has two sub-chains:
- BNB Beacon Chain (formerly Binance Chain) is responsible for governance
- BNB Smart Chain (formerly Binance Smart Chain) is EVM compatible and is where most on-chain transactions operate
How Many BNB Tokens Are in Circulation?
BNB, the native token of the Binance ecosystem, was created to raise funds for the Binance CEX and later used to enjoy discounted trading fees for users. Then as the ecosystem expands, the use cases of BNB also increase. Now BNB tokens can be used to pay gas fees and to stake on the BNB Chain, as well as used as payment methods accepted by various merchants.
BNB's Total Supply: 200,000,000
BNB's Circulating Supply: 161,337,261.09

The country has an equatorial climate with high temperatures, humidity, and rainfall. Because it is mountainous, the south of the main island is wetter than the north. Early June through late September make up the bulk of the dry season. Between the end of December and the beginning of February, there is a second dry season called "Pequenas Gravana." The majority of São Tomé Príncipe's terrain is mountainous. Other substantial amounts of land are covered with rainforests, the majority of which give place to cloud forests at higher altitudes.
After a period of a transitional government, São Tomé and Príncipe achieved independence on 12 July 1975, choosing as the first president the MLSTP Secretary General Manuel Pinto da Costa. São Tomé and Príncipe have some stunning attractions such as Pico Cão Grande, Cascata de São Nicolau, Lagoa Azul, Obo National Park, and Museu Nacional De São Tomé.
