Binance announced Tuesday that it is launching a public blockchain to facilitate the creation of a new decentralized exchange.
The cryptocurrency exchange said the move forms part of a plan to transition from "a company to a community" by developing its new Binance Chain, which will be used to transfer or trade different blockchain assets.
In addition, the company announced it would essentially shift its Binance Coin (BNB) to its own native blockchain (right now the coin is an ERC20 token that runs on the ethereum network). However, it's unclear if there will be some kind of token swap for users who hold the exchange's ERC-20-based token.
The token, in turn, would be the basis for a blockchain-based asset exchange, an option that would exist alongside Binance's more centralized offerings.
