# BSC and opBNB comparison

## opBNB is the enhanced layer-2 solution with high-performance

The Layer 2 scaling solution for the BNB Smart Chain, which is powered by the bedrock version of Optimism opStack, is the opBNB network. The BNB Smart Chain's transaction processing and resource consumption are offloaded, but data is still posted to the underlying mainnet. By making deposits from BSC and utilizing the applications and contracts on opBNB, users engage with the network. The rollup contract on BSC is then presented with the aggregated transactions, state transitions, and sequencers.

Verifiers examine the cryptographic proofs that Provers have produced to confirm that the opBNB state is accurate and that these state transitions are valid. In essence, opBNB offers minimal prices and excellent throughput for users to monitor network data, use smart contracts, and deposit and withdraw money. By utilizing Layer 2, opBNB is able to scale past the limitations of the BNB Smart Chain and give users a better experience.
