What Makes Bitcoin BEP2 (BTCB) Unique?

As Bitcoin is not strong when it comes to DeFi, developers are constantly looking for workarounds and struggle with obstacles that include high fees and a cumbersome process for creating smart contracts. Bitcoin BEP2 is a Bitcoin clone issued on Binance Chain. Its price is always as close as possible to the price of the underlying asset – Bitcoin – and each BTCB is backed by an actual BTC.

The pegged BTCB tokens are therefore 100% backed by their own reserve coin, Bitcoin. The advantages of using BTCB include:

• Since the release of BTCB, traders on Binance DEX have had the opportunity to trade BTC, even if the BTC is hosted on a completely different blockchain. BTCB therefore provides Binance DEX traders with access to even more trading pairs, resulting in increased trading volumes.
• As the range of available assets has grown, so has liquidity, which is an advantage for users of the exchange.
• Binance has sealed a strong reputation over the years and has earned the trust of its users, so many users are willing to store their BTC on the platform in order to access BTCB.
• On Binance Chain, anyone can check the BTC reserves at any convenient time, which attests to the project’s high degree of transparency.
• Exchange representatives claim that while this approach is more centralized than atomic swaps, it is easier to understand and master for most traders.
• If developers wish to transfer their assets to Binance Chain, the platform actively promotes this and streamlines the process.

How Many Bitcoin BEP2 (BTCB) Coins Are There in Circulation?

Bitcoin BEP2 is a token that uses the BEP-2 technical standard (as outlined in Binance Chain Evolution Proposal 2), which is used to issue and sell tokens on Binance Chain. As you know, Binance Chain has its own native token for paying fees, Binance Coin. To transfer BEP2 tokens you will therefore have to hold BNB tokens in your wallet.

BTCB holders can exchange their coins for any other tokens on Binance DEX. Token Holders can also exchange Bitcoin BEP2 for Bitcoin on the main Binance exchange.

As of early July 2021, the currency has a circulating supply of 73 096 BTCB and a total supply of 80 501 BTCB.

How Is the Bitcoin BEP2 Network Secured?

Bitcoin BEP2 is based on Binance Chain, which uses a combination of delegated proof-of-stake (DPoS) and practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance (pBFT). These two consensus algorithms are a much more ecological alternative to the energy-intensive proof-of-work (PoW) algorithm. On top of this, the Binance blockchain is also secured by the Tendermint byzantine fault tolerant (BFT) consensus mechanism.
