Unmarshal being a multi-chain DeFi Data network, will enable developers to build any kind of applications on the Binance Smart Chain. Our suite of products for BSC will allow developers to offload the strenuous job of indexing and leverage Unmarshal’s data infrastructure to source meaningful and rich data from BSC. The end-point integrations offered by Unmarshal are just not limited to APIs, but include other data avenues like Notifications, Websockets. Applications can now produce a holistic illustration of BSC data to their users. Also, we will be adding support for Analytics & Dashboard which can further enhance the user experience.

Binance Smart Chain Ecosystem

Binance Chain was launched in April 2019 with a focus on providing fast decentralized trading. Due to flexibility limitations, the Binance Chain evolved to the Binance Smart Chain which got launched in September 2020. Today, BSC is arguably one of the fastest-growing chains, which is gaining a lot of traction because of its intriguing features compared to the other chains

Key Aspects:

  • BSC generated $15 million & $24 billion in terms of transaction volumes in January and February 2021 respectively (exponential rise)
  • BSC is the third largest chain with more than 50,000 unique active wallets
  • PancakeSwap is only 12,000 users behind Uniswap in terms of unique active wallets

Some are the top features of BSC which are the reasons for it’s popularity

1. Superior Transaction Speed
Time taken to confirm a transaction is almost instant(3 second block processing time) with Proof of Staked Authority(PoSA)

2. Cross-chain compatibility
Binance Smart Chain operates on cross-chain technology which supports interoperability across different chains.

3. Lower transaction costs
BSC is more than 30 times cheaper than other chains like Ethereum, making it lucrative for developers to build applications on top of it.
