First of all when talking about bsc we are talking about a blockchain network . The first blockchain network was the Ethereum own and had all tokens and transactions been ran on it until it’s problems become a stumbling block . It had high transaction fees , scalability wasn’t really great and wasn’t as fast as people wanted . It led to the team working with the biggest exchange in the world ,binance to work towards creating their own network which is the BINANCE SMART CHAIN . A network created to solve lots of problems that came with the Ethereum network . It has grown popular over the years due to the fact the Ethereum network has become over bearing to people. It was created to work on Ethereum based applications like metamask cause it was created with an EVM( Ethereum virtual machine) . It works with a DPOS and POA consensus mechanism which maintain its security . The smart chain since it used POS system it has DPOS system , it has delegators which are 21 in number and these delegators are chosen weekly for the purpose of validating the blocks forged . These delegators are chosen from stakers on the network
Different exchanges between binance smart chain and Ethereum network
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BINANCE SMART CHAIN AND ETHERUM
Binance smart chain | Ethereum |
---|---|
Low transaction fees and gas fees | High transaction fees and gas fees |
High scalability | Low scalability |
Takes shorter time to form new blocks(3secs) | Takes longer time to form new blocks (4sec) |

I wont lie, this was a really tasking assignment but I learnt quite a lot from staking to swapping to creation of binance chain wallet. I learnt a lot of things. I plan to do more staking in the future rather than live tokens lying around and I thank @yousafharoonkhan for the assignment.
