In depth

BNB Chain was created via a hard fork, or permanent divergence, of the Go Ethereum protocol (Geth). While it is quite similar to Ethereum, there are a few significant differences. [1]

The most notable difference is that BNB Chain uses a different consensus mechanism.BNB Chain uses 21 validators, which take turns producing blocks. These validators are backed by delegators who stake BNB, the native coin of BNB Chain. This consensus mechanism is known as Proof of Staked Authority (PoSA). Validators are chosen based on the amount staked, and the top 21 candidates are elected to validate.[2]

Given that the BNB Chain chain was created via a fork of Geth, it is EVM-compatible. This means you can deploy the same contracts on BNB Chain as on Ethereum [3]
