What's poppin y'all! I'm new to the community. I love what's going on in the crypto community and this is my way of paying back. By enlightening people on the crypto space.

The diversity and evolution of the blockchain technology space ensure that there are a number of platforms, with different features and capabilities that offer viable solutions. BSC is one of these favorites (both to developers and users). Introduced by global cryptocurrency exchange, Binance, BSC is geared for data-intensive dApps (decentralised applications) and DeFi apps, with a focus on high performance at very low fees. In this post, we will discuss via the origins of Binance Smart Chain to its important features, use cases, and may be future prospector also.

The Genesis of Binance Smart Chain

The Binance Smart Chain first rolled out in September 2020 as a kind of parallel sidechain to the mainnet. Binance Chain is high in performance (fast trading) but low in flexibility for dApps. To solve this limitation, BSC was created to support smart contracts and higher scalability.

Dual Chain Architecture
Paired next to Binance Chain is BSC, allowing assets on one blockchain the ability to be transferred onto another chain in a non-discriminatory manner. So I guess this is sort of a dual chain architecture by capturing the high throughput part of Binance Chain and pairing it with smart contract layer brought from BSC.

Key Features of Binance Smart Chain

  1. Ethereum Compatibility: The Ethereum Virtual Machine allows Ethereum dApps to be ported to BSC with minimal changes. As a result, this has spurred rapid adoption and growth of an ecosystem of applications.

  2. PoSA : BSC has a consensus mechanism known as Proof of Staked Authority. It’s a combination of PoS and Proof of Authority. As a result, it’s faster and costs less than PoW blockchains.

  3. Low Fees: Perhaps BSC’s most appealing feature is its low fees. The price of BSC transactions is very low, making it very appealing to developers and DeFi users. Since DeFi systems rely on regular transactions by users, the low cost per transaction attracts many.

  4. Transaction Speeds: BSC Is built for high throughput, KTP; it focuses on TPS rather than anything else This scalability overcomes growing tendencies to develop multiple dApps and DeFi projects.

  5. Healthy Ecosystem: BSC supports a rich ecosystem, including decentralized exchanges (DEX), lending protocols and farming opportunities such as NFT markets. The ecosystem is built on Binance, which has its own powerful resources and user base.

Binance Smart Chain has been one of the most significant blockchain creations that have provided a high-performance platform for DeFi, NFTs, gaming and many more use cases. It is known for being compatible with Ethereum, having very low transaction fees and a large developer/user base due to it's more comprehensive ecosystem. If BSC can adapt and better meet its challenges, it has the potential to help shape the future of decentralized applications and finance.
