What are Binance-Peg Tokens?
‘Peg’ means to tie the value of one crypto to another. The main purpose of these tokens is to allow trading of the assets in DEXes that is not currently possible due to their different blockchains. This brings digital assets such as BTC, ETH, USDT, LTC, XRP, LINK, ATOM, DOT, XTZ, ONT, and more to the Binance Chain ecosystem.
Important!
Do not send Binance-Peg Tokens (BEP20) to exchanges that does not support them. Transactions cannot be reversed and the tokens will be lost. Send only Binance-Peg Tokens to Binance.
Trust Wallet supports Bitcoin (BTC) and Ripple (XRP), and several other blockchains. However, these assets cannot be traded natively on any DEX.
