Quick take
- We could not conclusively verify a BEP-20 token named “BUIDL” at 0x93b0134d88773679b0236006c092a5d5f57a4444 on BNB Chain as of the time of writing.
- “BUIDL” is a popular crypto ethos and ticker used by multiple unrelated projects on other networks, which creates easy confusion.
- Notably:
- BlackRock’s tokenized fund “BUIDL” lives on Ethereum and other chains, not BNB Chain.
- GoHacker.AI’s “BUIDL” operates on Base, not BNB Chain.
- BNB Chain’s “BUIDL Reward Program” is an incentive initiative, not a tradable token.
- If/when a legitimate market exists, always verify the contract on BscScan and use reputable trackers such as GMGN.AI before trading.
What “BUIDL” means (and why you see it everywhere)
“BUIDL” is crypto slang for “build,” much like “HODL” is to “hold.” It’s a mindset: ship products, write code, test dApps, and contribute to open-source—don’t just speculate. Because the term is so widespread, multiple unrelated tokens and initiatives use “BUIDL,” which increases the chance of mixing up contracts and chains.
Commonly confused “BUIDL” projects
BlackRock USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund (BUIDL):
- A tokenized money market fund launched with Securitize, designed to bring on-chain exposure to short-term, low-risk assets.
- Initially on Ethereum and later expanded to networks like Polygon, Avalanche, Optimism, Arbitrum, Aptos, and Solana.
- The well-known Ethereum contract is 0x7712c34205737192402172409a8F7ccef8aA2AEc. This is not on BNB Chain.
GoHacker.AI (BUIDL) on Base:
- A builder-focused analytics platform that highlights developer impact using GitHub data.
- Its BUIDL token is on the Base network, tradable via Uniswap (Base). Again, not BNB Chain.
BNB Smart Chain BUIDL Reward Program:
- An initiative to reward developers who deploy usable dApps on BNB Smart Chain.
- It is not a tradable token; it’s an incentive mechanism. See the announcement on Binance’s blog for details.
Status of 0x93b0134d88773679b0236006c092a5d5f57a4444 on BNB Chain
Our search did not produce conclusive, publicly indexed results confirming an active, recognized BEP-20 “BUIDL” token at this address on BNB Chain. That could mean:
- The token is very new or inactive and not widely indexed yet.
- There’s a typo in the address or symbol.
- It exists but lacks public documentation, liquidity, or verified metadata.
You can attempt a direct lookup on BscScan’s token page for the address to see live status, holders, and contract verification.
How to independently verify any BEP-20 token (simple checklist)
Contract basics on BscScan:
- Open bscscan.com/token/0x93b0134d88773679b0236006c092a5d5f57a4444.
- Confirm the token name, symbol, decimals, and total supply match official documentation.
- Check if the source code is verified. Unverified code is a red flag.
Ownership and permissions:
- See if the contract is renounced or controlled by an owner.
- Review functions for minting, blacklisting, pausing, or changing fees. Elevated privileges require extra caution.
Holders and distribution:
- Evaluate top wallet concentrations. Excessive concentration can signal dump risk.
- Inspect liquidity: Is liquidity added? Is it locked? How long?
Market health and safety:
- Use real-time analytics and security checks. Track flows, taxes, and suspicious patterns via GMGN.AI.
- Cross-check other trackers or DEX info pages to validate liquidity and trading activity.
- Test a tiny swap first to ensure it’s not a honeypot and to see the effective tax.
Off-chain signals:
- Confirm official socials, website, and docs. Do they explicitly list the contract and BNB Chain?
- Watch for mismatched branding, cloned sites, and new domains with no history.
If you choose to trade
Only after verifying the contract and market conditions:
- Track and analyze the token on GMGN.AI for real-time flow, top holders, and security checks.
- If there’s confirmed BNB Chain liquidity, you can attempt a swap via a BSC DEX like PancakeSwap:
- Direct swap URL (if liquidity exists): https://pancakeswap.finance/swap?outputCurrency=0x93b0134d88773679b0236006c092a5d5f57a4444
- Always verify slippage, taxes, and contract permissions before proceeding.
Why confusion happens with “BUIDL”
Because “BUIDL” is an ethos and a popular ticker, multiple unrelated entities use it:
- A tokenized fund by BlackRock on Ethereum and other chains.
- A builder analytics token by GoHacker.AI on Base.
- A developer reward initiative on BNB Chain (not a token).
This cross-chain reuse of the same symbol makes contract-address verification non-negotiable.
Bottom line
- We cannot confirm a widely recognized BEP-20 BUIDL token at 0x93b0134d88773679b0236006c092a5d5f57a4444 on BNB Chain at this time.
- If you encounter claims about this token, independently verify on BscScan and use tools like GMGN.AI to assess risks before taking action.
- When in doubt, compare the contract against official channels and remember that similar tickers across chains are often unrelated.
