About Blockchains

About Celo

Celo stands as a blockchain ecosystem with a mission to foster cryptocurrency adoption among smartphone users globally. Utilizing phone numbers as public keys, Celo aims to onboard billions of smartphone owners, including those lacking traditional banking access, into cryptocurrency transactions. The platform is engineered to offer a comprehensive range of stablecoins, decentralized identification solutions, and other resources, empowering both users and developers alike.

About BNB Chain

The BNB Chain, formerly known as Binance Smart Chain (BSC), is a blockchain platform introduced by the cryptocurrency exchange Binance. Its native token, BNB, serves various roles within the ecosystem. BNB acts as the network's transaction fuel, similar to gas on Ethereum, and grants users governance rights to participate in on-chain decision-making. In September 2020, Binance introduced the BNB Smart Chain alongside the BNB Beacon Chain, extending BNB's functionality. The BNB Smart Chain supports smart contracts and staking, offering an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible infrastructure. This dual-chain design aims to provide a high-performance, cost-effective environment for the blockchain community, ensuring compatibility with existing Ethereum tools and dApps while improving scalability and user experience.
