The opBNB network is a layer 2 scaling solution for BSC (BNB Smart Chain). It is built on the Optimism OP Stack technology framework and allows developers to build Web3 applications such as games and social networking on opBNB.
opBNB is compatible with EVM. This feature allows developers to quickly and easily deploy smart contracts and build DApps on opBNB. Compared to BSC, opBNB has higher throughput and lower transaction costs.
