The Binance chain is the native blockchain of Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume. The project was born of a need for a decentralized, transparent and immutable blockchain that can be used as a public ledger for recording all transactions on the platform. The new chain will serve as the foundation for Binance’s native DEX and will also feature tools that will enable third-party developers to develop their own decentralized applications (dApps) based on the technology. Binance hopes its blockchain will “provide an underlying layer of a seamless financial infrastructure, driving rapid growth in digital asset adoption.”

BNB Chain

Stellar is a platform that aims to facilitate fast, affordable, and secure cross-asset transfers of value. It's built on a base layer that uses Lumens, the native asset of the Stellar network, as a bridge between any two currencies.
