BNB Chain · BEP20

BNB Chain is the cheap EVM. It carries USDT and USDC alongside its own BNB, settles in about three seconds, and costs a fraction of Ethereum for the same transfer — which is why BEP20 is where a lot of money sits waiting to go somewhere else. The catch is the usual one: you normally need BNB to move any of it.

The BNB you do not need to buy

Every BEP20 transfer is paid for in BNB. Holding stablecoins here therefore normally means holding a second asset purely to be allowed to spend the first. The fee is settled inside the operation instead, and quoted in the token you are sending.

BEP20 to TRC20, the route people actually want

The single most asked-for move in this wallet is USDT from BNB Chain to Tron. Deposit on BEP20, withdraw on TRC20 — $1 of network fee instead of $3, with no energy rental waiting at the other end.

What lives here

USDT, USDC and BNB. The wrapped versions of other assets that circulate on BNB Chain are deliberately not offered — a wrapped token is a claim on someone else’s custody, which is the opposite of what this wallet is for.
