Binance, a leading cryptocurrency exchange by client count and trading volumes, has integrated Binance-Pegged BUSD on the Ethereum layer-2 platform, the Optimism Network.<\/span><\/p>\n

Binance Integrates The Optimism Network<\/span><\/h2>\n

In a\u00a0<\/span>press release<\/span><\/a>\u00a0on February 2, Binance said their users can now begin depositing and withdrawing the wrapped token via the Optimism Network.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Optimism Network is a layer-2 protocol on Ethereum seeking to scale the smart contracting platform and drastically lower fees. Transaction fees on Optimism are\u00a0<\/span>several<\/span><\/a>\u00a0folds lower than on Ethereum, and dApps launching on it can benefit from rapid transaction processing speeds.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Optimism Network is the second largest Ethereum layer-2 platform with a total value locked\u00a0<\/span>share<\/span><\/a>\u00a0of 32.58%. Its native token, OP, is currently trading at $2.79.<\/span><\/p>\n

Following this integration, Binance allows users to transfer Binance-pegged BUSD, a wrapped version of BUSD, on the Optimism network. BUSD is a stablecoin that tracks the USD and is issued by Paxos under the Binance brand.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The issuer of BUSD says the stablecoin, compliant with the ERC-20 standard on Ethereum, is regulated by the New York State Department of Financial Services. The Binance-pegged BUSD is a version of BUSD that can be used to move value beyond Ethereum to Avalanche<\/a>, Polygon, and Binance ecosystems, including the BNB Smart Chain (BSC).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Binance said holders can swap BUSD and Binance-pegged BUSD freely between chains. As a wrapped token of BUSD, Binance-pegged BUSD is held by a third party and is a different product from BUSD. Nonetheless, Binance has assured holders that it is safe to hold.<\/span><\/p>\n

Over the years, the Binance ecosystem has grown. Although there are bridges with Ethereum and BNB Smart Chain (BSC) remains interoperable with other networks, association with Ethereum is critical.

The Optimism Network is among the many layer-2 protocols aiming to scale Ethereum. As a general-purpose platform, dApps can deploy and retain the base layer’s security.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Over the months, layer-2 platforms, dominated mainly by Arbitrum and Optimism, have been processing increasingly more transactions. Dune Analytics’\u00a0<\/span>data<\/span><\/a>\u00a0on January 10 showed that Arbitrum and Optimism processed 1.12 million transactions versus Ethereum, at 1.06 million.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to Vitalik Buterin, scaling Ethereum through layer-2 solutions, including Optimism, will form a base for further throughput enhancement in the future. <\/span><\/p>\n

With the merge completed, the goal of Ethereum developers is to gradually improve on-chain scalability through Sharding. Then, Ethereum developers would process over 100,000 transactions per second, establishing themselves as a smart contracting platform leader.<\/span><\/p>\n

His specialization in NFTs, blockchain, DeFi, and blockchain news for NewsBTC, combined with a background in mechanical engineering and over a decade of experience in journalism, has allowed him to craft over 10,000 news and feature articles over the past eight years. His diverse range of topics, including technology, Forex, and finance, reflects his comprehensive understanding of the crypto landscape. His technical expertise and analytical skills have been recognized and featured by leading news outlets such as Investing.com, CoinTelegraph, Entrepreneur, Forbes, and other authority sites. Notably, he broke key news, including the Ripple and MoneyGram partnership, cementing his position as a thought leader in crypto. The news exploded. Over 100,000 people devoured this meticulously crafted report, from seasoned investors to curious newcomers. His analysis wasn't just dry facts and figures; it crackled with insight, dissecting the implications of the partnership and its potential impact on the future of finance. His deep understanding of the financial markets, technological advancements, and blockchain developments has made him a respected voice in the industry. Dalmas is also the founder of BTC-Pulse, a crypto news site, further demonstrating his commitment to the field. He firmly believes that DeFi and NFTs are here to stay and will continue to drive financial inclusion. Coming from Nairobi, Kenya, it is easy to see the source of his inspiration: Across Africa, millions lack access to traditional banks. Remote villages, limited documentation, and high minimum balances create insurmountable barriers. DeFi, not just Maker or Aave, for example, but think of Bitcoin and USDT, cuts out the middleman. Forget banks with their limitations. Even so, DeFi isn't a magic solution. The continent still struggles with reliable internet access, and educational campaigns highlighting the benefits of this wonderful solution are insufficient. Moreover, even for those interested, understanding DeFi can look like learning a new language. Dalmas is here to help make the tech easy to understand and digestible, even for beginners. The story of DeFi in Africa is still being written. Challenges abound, but the promise of a more inclusive financial future is a powerful motivator. With innovation and collaboration, Dalmas firmly believes that DeFi could become the key to unlocking Africa's full economic potential. This possibility and its immense value motivate Dalmas to continue breaking key DeFi innovations and more across the globe. His engineering background further enhances his ability to deliver well-thought-out pieces that blend technical insight with clear, impactful reporting. Beyond his professional achievements, Dalmas is deeply passionate about technology and politics. Policies drive adoption, and being at the forefront and keeping up with how they evolve is crucial for the sphere to mature. When Dalmas is not closely monitoring the latest crypto events, he can be found in nature, exploring the picturesque countryside, and traveling with his family and friends. His love for adventure and discovery perfectly complements his investigative and reporting skills.

Dalmas is also the founder of BTC-Pulse, a crypto news site, further demonstrating his commitment to the field. He firmly believes that DeFi and NFTs are here to stay and will continue to drive financial inclusion. Coming from Nairobi, Kenya, it is easy to see the source of his inspiration: Across Africa, millions lack access to traditional banks. Remote villages, limited documentation, and high minimum balances create insurmountable barriers. DeFi, not just Maker or Aave, for example, but think of Bitcoin and USDT, cuts out the middleman. Forget banks with their limitations. Even so, DeFi isn't a magic solution. The continent still struggles with reliable internet access, and educational campaigns highlighting the benefits of this wonderful solution are insufficient. Moreover, even for those interested, understanding DeFi can look like learning a new language. Dalmas is here to help make the tech easy to understand and digestible, even for beginners. The story of DeFi in Africa is still being written. Challenges abound, but the promise of a more inclusive financial future is a powerful motivator. With innovation and collaboration, Dalmas firmly believes that DeFi could become the key to unlocking Africa's full economic potential. This possibility and its immense value motivate Dalmas to continue breaking key DeFi innovations and more across the globe. His engineering background further enhances his ability to deliver well-thought-out pieces that blend technical insight with clear, impactful reporting. Beyond his professional achievements, Dalmas is deeply passionate about technology and politics. Policies drive adoption, and being at the forefront and keeping up with how they evolve is crucial for the sphere to mature. When Dalmas is not closely monitoring the latest crypto events, he can be found in nature, exploring the picturesque countryside, and traveling with his family and friends. His love for adventure and discovery perfectly complements his investigative and reporting skills.
