## About
Venus BUSD (vBUSD/VBUSD) is a Venus Protocol vToken on BNB Smart Chain. It represents supplied BUSD in the Venus lending market and is a receipt/accounting token, not a standalone stablecoin and not a native blockchain.\n\nVenus Protocol documentation and code describe vTokens as BEP-20 market contracts used for minting, redemption, borrowing, repayment, and collateral accounting. VBUSD inherits settlement from BNB Smart Chain and its economic behavior from the Venus BUSD market exchange rate. It has no independent mining, validator set, block reward, or base-layer consensus.\n\nFor BlockIndex, VBUSD should be treated as DeFi protocol infrastructure: decentralization depends on Venus Protocol governance, smart-contract risk, BNB Chain dependency, and the underlying BUSD market rather than on a separate blockchain network.
