We are pleased to announce that Binance has now enabled deposits and withdrawals for CTSI on Binance.com as a wrapped BEP-20 token on Binance Smart Chain (BSC). In addition to this, CTSI is now enabled on the Binance Bridge, which provides a safe, fast and secure way to bring cross-chain assets to Binance chains.

Binance Smart Chain is a smart contracts execution platform that is complementary to the Binance Chain. BSC enables developers to build EVM-compatible DApps and digital assets with low fees and high scalability on one blockchain and take advantage of fast transfers on the other.

The option to wrap your CTSI ERC-20 token and withdraw CTSI on BSC as a BEP-20 token adds utility to the CTSI token ecosystem through expanding the available use-cases to include DeFi products and DApps on Binance Smart Chain.

Note: This does not affect the total supply of CTSI as all tokens issued on BSC are wrapped with ERC-20 counterparts.
