DIA Token on Binance Smart Chain as BEP-20
DIA announced that the DIA token is now available on Binance Smart Chain as a native BEP-20 token, enabling the DIA token holder community to benefit from broader accessibility and lower transaction costs.
As of today, the DIA BEP-20 token is available on the Binance Smart Chain, enabling Binance users to make use of the token deposit and withdrawal functionality. As a native BEP-20 token on BSC, it leverages smart contract functionalities and compatibility through the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). This allows access to the rich universe of Ethereum tools and DApps while avoiding Ethereum’s current high transaction fees — gas costs.
🔸How to get the DIA BEP-20
🔹Step 1: Connect a wallet, various options:
- Metamask is the most popular Ethereum wallet, also compatible with BSC. You can follow this tutorial to connect Metamask to BSC:
- Trust Wallet is one of the easiest mobile wallets to use, so if you’d like to use BSC from your pocket, it’s among the best options. Download link
- Binance Chain Wallet is another option that you have for certain apps on BSC. You can get it as a browser extension for Chrome, Firefox, and Brave.
🔹Step 2: Move funds to a BSC compatible wallet, two options:
- Withdraw from your Binance account, by selecting Binance Smart Chain (BEP-20) when withdrawing funds to your external wallet.
🔸Benefits of BEP-20 token
Interoperability:
- Through the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), BSC is Ethereum-compatible, supporting Ethereum based DApps, tools and DeFi products, like Metamask.
- BSC also offers seamless integration with Binance Chain (BC), even though BSC is not a layer 2 blockchain.
High speed, low transactional costs:
- With an average gas price of 20 gwei, sending 10 BEP-20 tokens worth about $300 should cost roughly $0.01. In fact, sending ten or even a hundred times that amount still shouldn’t cost more than a few cents.
Native DApps Integration:
- The DIA Token is benefiting from the flexibility of the Binance Smart Chain to integrate the token into different DeFi applications of the BSC ecosystem. For example, it allows users to trustlesstly exchange the token through Pancakeswap’s pair exchange.

About Binance Smart Chain
Binance Smart Chain (BSC) is a blockchain developed by the Binance Chain community that runs in parallel to the Binance Chain (BC). Unlike Binance Chain, BSC boasts smart contract functionality and compatibility with the rich Ethereum ecosystem through the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM).
The design goal of BSC was to achieve high transaction capacity, while introducing smart contracts into the ecosystem, enabling users to create DApps and other DeFi products. The BSC Network is powered by BNB, Binance ecosystem’s native token and runs on a proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus model.
