Migrating from Binance Chain to Binance Smart Chain
Step 1 — Obtain BNB & other ‘Peggy Coins’ on Binance.com
. Note that this is Binance.com not Binance.org
Step 2 — Transfer out to your BSC-configured MetaMask wallet
- Once you have BNB or other ‘Peggy Coins’ (multi-chain) in your Binance.com account, withdraw them from your wallet
- Ensure you select the right token and the right ‘Transfer Network’ (BEP2 for BC, BEP20 for BSC)
- Also make sure you are using the correct ‘Recipient’s Address’
- By doing this Binance is effectively handling the bridge for you
- In your account you basically hold a tally of a particular token which is not realised into whether it is BEP2/BEP20 until you choose when you withdraw it.
If you have not already setup your MetaMask wallet and connected it to Binance Smart chain, follow this guide:
Create a MetaMask Wallet
Once the install is completed you should be forwarded to a “Welcome” screen, start by clicking “Get Started”
Welcome Screen: Click “Get Started”
Then click “Create a Wallet”

MetaMask Password
Create a password to be used to secure your MetaMask plugin. This is so that no-one can see your account info without entering the password.
Pick a password
Wallet Secret Backup Phrase
Your new wallet will have a secret backup phrase. This is for recovering your wallet and must be kept secret. You should write down these words on a piece of paper and store them in a secure location in case of an issue requiring recovery of your wallet.

Token holders, please reach out to your project teams and let them know you would like them to set up the bridge to access BSC; it takes about 1 hour to complete the process!Guide to setup BEP2 <-> BEP20 bridge
