opBNB: who orders transactions?

Who controls it

Transaction ordering

Centralised, Binance-operated

Escape hatch

It settles to BNB Smart Chain, which Ketju does not approve.

Upgrade authority

Binance controls it.

Halts and outages

Ketju did not assess liveness, because the settlement chain decides the verdict.

Ketju assessment

Ketju does not approve opBNB: it settles to BNB Smart Chain, which Ketju does not approve, and it adds a centralised sequencer that Binance operates. A rollup inherits every property of the chain it settles to. Ketju lists opBNB so that it cannot pass as an unrecognised chain.

Review triggers

• None: Ketju does not approve this chain.

Each trigger names a fact anyone can observe. If one occurs, Ketju will review the assessment again. None is a forecast.

Questions before use

1. Does the client’s thesis require censorship resistance, or primarily low-cost settlement?
2. Can the client withdraw without help from the party that normally orders transactions?
3. Who can upgrade bridges or contracts, and what delay applies?
4. Does the asset introduce an issuer weaker than the chain grade?
5. What evidence will show a halt, censorship event, or governance change?
