# WHY CVIP IS BASED ON MULTIPLE BLOCKCHAINS?

Binance Smart Chain (BSC) has a faster block time of approximately 3 seconds, resulting in quicker transaction confirmation compared to Ethereum, which has a block time of around 13-15 seconds. BSC is known for lower transaction fees and faster transaction processing, while Ethereum boasts a robust ecosystem and wider adoption, especially in decentralized finance (DeFi) applications. It only has **29** validators, or miners, whereas the Ethereum network has over **903,626** validators.
