# Blockchain Infrastructure EarthPulse is built on the blockchain infrastructure of Binance Smart Chain. This network was selected due to its high performance, low transaction fees, and compatibility with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). The use of an EVM-compatible blockchain enables the EarthPulse platform to leverage established blockchain development tools and frameworks. Transactions within the ecosystem are processed quickly and efficiently while maintaining transparency and security through decentralized ledger technology. All token transactions, reward distributions, and governance actions are recorded on-chain, ensuring immutable records of ecosystem activity. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
