The BNB Beacon Chain works as a <a href=\"https:\/\/paybis.com\/blog\/glossary\/what-is-dao\/\">governance structure<\/a> where participants make decisions by voting using BNB as the governance token. To facilitate the creation and management of tokens on Binance Chain, the BEP-2 token standard was developed. BEP-2, which stands for Binance Chain Evolution Proposal, is a token standard for BNB Chain, similar to Ethereum&#8217;s ERC-20 standard. It defines a set of rules and guidelines for creating and managing tokens on the Binance Chain blockchain. BEP-2 tokens are built on top of the Binance Chain network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a id=\"post-7084-_5hdcf3csvcql\"><\/a><strong>Features of BEP-2 Token<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The following are some of the features of a BEP-2 token:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Faster Transactions:<\/strong> BEP-2 tokens benefit from Binance Chain&#8217;s high-performance blockchain, enabling fast and efficient transactions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Low Fees:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/paybis.com\/blog\/glossary\/what-is-a-transaction-fee\/\">Transaction fees<\/a> on Binance Chain are significantly lower compared to other blockchain networks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Security:<\/strong> BEP-2 tokens are built on a secure and reliable blockchain, ensuring the integrity of transactions and token management.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Interoperability:<\/strong> BEP-2 tokens can interact seamlessly with other BNB Chain tokens and assets.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Customizable:<\/strong> BEP-2 tokens can be customized to suit specific use cases and applications.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a id=\"post-7084-_ctntp492nsn1\"><\/a><strong>Parameters of a BEP-2 Token<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The following parameters are included in a BEP-2 token:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Token Name:<\/strong> A unique name for the token e.g., \u201cmyYamToken\u201d.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Token Symbol:<\/strong> A short symbol representing the token (e.g., BTC for Bitcoin).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Total Supply: <\/strong>The maximum amount of tokens that can be created.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Source Address:<\/strong> This is the address indicating the creator of the token.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Mintable: <\/strong>A flag indicating whether new tokens can be created (minted).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a id=\"post-7084-_p8u0p0qahfld\"><\/a><strong>Sunsetting BNB Beacon Chain<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Binance announced a six-month sunsetting of the BNB Beacon Chain in January. By the end of June (2024), deposits and transaction requests from the BNB Beacon network will no longer be supported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a id=\"post-7084-_qknog9cxxsjz\"><\/a><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>BEP-2 is a token standard for BNB Beacon Chain, offering a range of features and customization options for token creators. With its fast transactions, low fees, and secure blockchain, BEP-2 tokens are well-suited for a variety of use cases, from <a href=\"https:\/\/paybis.com\/blog\/glossary\/what-is-defi\/\">decentralized finance<\/a> (DeFi) applications to gaming and social media platforms. As the Binance Chain ecosystem continues to grow, BEP-2 tokens are likely to play a significant role in shaping the future of blockchain innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a0<em>Browse the Paybis Glossary to master more web3 lingo!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Alternatively, explore related terms and articles below.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BEP-2 is a technical standard that ensures that tokens created on the BNB Chain adhere to specific guidelines to promote interoperability, efficiency, and functionality within the ecosystem<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","glossary_letter":[287],"glossary_term":[277],"class_list":["post-7084","glossary","type-glossary","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>What is BEP-2 in Crypto? - Paybis<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Learn the basics of BEP-2, the native token standard for BNB Chain.
