On July 25, 2017, Binance Exchange, the number one crypto exchange of the number of transactions and its active user, issued crypto-assets traded under the symbol BNB. This crypto asset is what we know now as BNB coin or Binance coin (BNB).
There are many exciting things with this original coin from Binance. The market capitalization is more than 3.15 billion USD, and the daily trading volume is more than 203 million USD, avery high number.
Even with stable fundamentals and more users have made it into the top 10 at Coinmarketcap. BNB is also easy to trade on various platforms.
BNB coins are ERC-20 tokens running on the Ethereum blockchain. The total amount is 200 million BNB tokens.
In the initial phase of development, BNB coins were only used for transactions for the Malta-based company's operational needs. Such as trading fees, recording fees, exchange fees, and other costs contained on the Binance exchange.
Binance Strategy Attracts Fans
Investopedia reported that in the first year of its launch, traders who transact through BNB are given a 50% discount.
These discounts are reduced periodically for the next five years. Starting from 50%, 25%, 12.5%, 6.25% until finally not valid at all.
Not only discounts but the popularity of Binance coin is also due to this crypto asset can be used to invest in ICOs registered through Binance Cryptocurrency Launchpad that will be listed on Binance exchanges.

Burn Coins Let ThePrice NotFall

This repurchase of BNB tokens uses capital derived from 20% of Binance's profits.
Then after being purchased, the 100 million BNB tokens will be burned and destroyed gradually. As of mid-April 2018, there were 2,220,314 BNB tokens (about $30 million) burned by Binance.
The purpose of this burning is to reduce the rate of inflation. Like the law of supply and demand, BNB value will increase if the supply is lacking, but demand is stable or continues to grow.
Indirectly, the increased destruction or burning of BNB tokens also indicates the profitability of the Binance exchange.

Binance Visa Card
In April 2020, Binance introduced a cryptocurrency-based debit card called a Binance visa card. Its function is very similar to a typical bank debit card.
This Binance card, in cooperation with Visa, will allow Binance users -Who is eligible- to buy and pay bills with cryptocurrency.
So you can shop using Bitcoin and BNB. But of course, at outlets that accept Visa.
It works very much like a regular debit card issued by a typical bank. The user deposits funds into the card before using them for transactions. But the advantage is, there is no monthly or yearly fee, just one time to pay 15 USD for the card reservation fee.
Binance cardholders can manage their accounts through the Binance card App. Users can view transaction history, withdraw funds, manage PINs, and access customer service.
