MOVING BETWEEN BINANCE CHAINS: A STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE FOR CROSS-CHAIN TRADERS
⏩ Whether you're managing assets across BEP2, BEP20, or ERC20, understanding how to move tokens between chains is essential for every serious trader. Here's a breakdown of how to deposit to Binance.US and navigate cross-chain transfers without losing sleep—or your funds.
🔗 UNDERSTANDING THE CHAINS
- BEP2: Binance Chain’s original standard. Fast, low fees, but limited smart contract support.
- BEP20: Binance Smart Chain (BSC). Compatible with Ethereum’s ERC20, ideal for DeFi and smart contracts.
- ERC20: Ethereum’s token standard. Widely supported, but higher gas fees.
📥 DEPOSITING TO BINANCE.US
Binance.US supports BEP2 and ERC20, but not BEP20. That means:
✅ If you're sending from BSC (BEP20), you must first convert to BEP2 or ERC20.
❌ Sending BEP20 directly to Binance.US will result in lost funds.
🚀 CROSS-CHAIN TRANSFER WORKFLOW
1. Identify your source chain
Example: You hold $USDT on BEP20 (BSC).
2. Use Binance’s Bridge or Wallet
Convert BEP20 → BEP2 or ERC20 using:
- Binance Wallet (Trust Wallet or Binance App)
- Binance Bridge (if available)
3. Double-check network compatibility
- Binance.US accepts ERC20 and BEP2.
- Choose the correct deposit address and memo (for BEP2).
4. Send with caution
- Always test with a small amount.
- Confirm the token standard and network before finalizing.
🛡️ RISK MANAGEMENT TIPS
- Never rush cross-chain transfers.
- Use official Binance tools only—avoid third-party bridges unless verified.
- Keep screenshots of your transaction IDs and confirmations.
- If stuck, contact Binance.US support with full details.
💡 PRO TIP FOR SMALL ACCOUNTS
Use BEP2 for lower fees when moving $BNB or $USDT to Binance.US. For ERC20 tokens, factor in Ethereum gas costs—especially during peak hours.
