Swap BEP-2 for BEP-20 BNB Asset

How to use the Binance Chain to Binance Smart Chain Bridge
Some Exchanges (Coinspot, HitBTC, etc) trade BNB on the "Binance Chain Network". You will notice that the addresses on the Binance Chain Network will start with "bnb". These tokens will not be able to be transferred directly to wallets like Metamask or TrustWallet without doing a conversion to the Binance Smart Chain. This page will cover the conversion process using the Binance Chrome Extension.
Please Note: If you have an account on the Binance Exchange, then you can send your BNB coins there to convert.
