BNB (BNB)
Separate a token balance from the funds needed for gas.
CoinMarketCap rank #4 · 1 November 2026
How it works
BNB is the native asset used for gas on BNB Smart Chain. A wallet may hold a BEP-20 token while having too little native BNB to execute its transfer. The fee and the asset being delivered occupy separate lines in your payment calculation.
Worked example
A wallet holds stablecoins on BNB Smart Chain and shows a positive portfolio value. Its token transfer still fails during fee estimation. Check the selected chain and available native balance, then obtain a fresh estimate for that specific contract call.
What to verify
Inspect the receipt status, gas used and effective gas price. Check the token transfer event for the beneficiary and amount.
