Binance Smart Chain (BSC) operates as a parallel blockchain to Binance Chain, designed to support decentralized applications (dApps) and decentralized finance (DeFi) projects. BSC is compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), allowing developers to easily port over Ethereum projects. It uses Proof of Staked Authority (PoSA) to achieve consensus, offering low transaction fees and fast confirmation times, making it a popular platform for DeFi protocols, decentralized exchanges, and NFT marketplaces.
