On April 18, World’s largest crypto exchange, Binance, launched its blockchain. The blockchain goes by the name Binance Chain main-net. With the launch of this blockchain, the company aims to support decentralized exchanges or DEX.
According to reports, the company includes decentralized exchange in its pipeline. And, the company is to launch the new blockchain probably in the next week.
Binance has over 10 million users, as per data say. The company tweets that on 18th April, it is the beginning of a new genesis block. In addition to that, the exchange is quite hopeful of introducing a new and efficient protocol. The protocol is meant for decentralized applications or Dapps. However, it requires a higher transaction capacity.
Similarly, the team of Binance explains the launch. According to the team, they created Binance Chain to support the exchange and issuance of digital assets. They also say that any project can issue new tokens on Binance Chain. But, the existing tokens do not depend upon smart contracts. They add that the existing ones can migrate towards Binance Chain.
Binance Team explains the aim of new exchange

According to them, it will inspire more project participation and more economic freedom. Binance DEX will help for a long-term vision for peer-to-peer crypto trading.
Moreover, the world’s largest exchange expects to move its native token. For instance, Binance Coin or BNB is the coin that the company is set to replace with the new blockchain platform.
Currently, BNB trades on Ethereum network. As data suggest, the market capitalization of the premiere token is $2.95 billion.
However, the exchange believes they will inspire other cryptocurrency projects. As a result of which, other crypto firms will follow their suit and migrate towards Binance Chain main-net.
Further, reports say that the exchange will create BNB on Binance Chain. The move will supply 200 million. However, on this, the company will burn 11,654,398 BNB. It is to replicate the supply of BNB on Ethereum.
