How to start using BNB Chain safely
To begin, choose an EVM-compatible wallet, verify the BSC network parameters, obtain a small amount of BNB for gas and make a low-value test transaction before using an application.

Which wallet can I use?
Any reputable EVM-compatible wallet can support BSC when configured correctly. Compare custody model, security record and device support.
What network details matter?
BSC mainnet uses Chain ID 56. Verify the RPC and explorer against official documentation.
Why do I need BNB?
BNB pays gas. Without enough BNB, a wallet cannot submit a token transfer or contract interaction.
What should the first transaction be?
Use a small test amount, verify the destination and network, then confirm the transaction in an explorer.
What should I check before connecting a dApp?
Verify the domain, contract addresses, requested permissions and the exact action shown in the wallet.
What may change
Network parameters, validator sets, governance processes, contracts, product availability and regulatory treatment can change. Verify operational facts before acting.
