BEP-20 Token Standard: The Passport of the BSC Ecosystem

Abstract generation in progress

The tokens you see on BNB Chain basically all follow the BEP-20 standard. Simply put, it’s the “translated version” of Ethereum’s ERC-20 standard on BSC.

Core Mechanism

BEP-20 allows developers to issue various digital assets on BSC. These tokens support transfers, holding, and interactions. Gas fees for transfers are paid in BNB, just like ETH is used for gas on Ethereum.

Cross-Chain Compatibility

The key advantage of BEP-20 is its strong compatibility:

  • Can bridge Ethereum ERC-20 tokens
  • Can convert Binance Chain BEP-2 tokens
  • Allows users to flexibly move assets across different ecosystems

That’s why the BSC ecosystem is so vibrant—developers have full freedom to issue assets, and users can easily conduct cross-chain operations.

Risk Warning: Token investment carries risks. Be cautious and verify addresses carefully when using cross-chain bridges to prevent asset loss.
