# Why do we need BEP-20 Token and What is the Ultimate Solution?

To build a seamless, decentralized ecosystem that supports NFTs, tokenized assets, staking, and high-speed trading, the Wherls platform required a blockchain infrastructure that was fast, scalable, secure, and cost-effective. The BEP-20 standard on Binance Smart Chain emerged as the optimal solution to meet these technical and economic needs.

But Wherls goes beyond just adopting BEP-20.

Our ultimate solution lies in the creation of an interconnected, multi-utility token system that empowers users at every stage of their journey — from creation to transaction, staking to governance. $WHERLS is not just a currency; it is the foundation of a self-sustaining digital economy where users are rewarded for their engagement, loyalty, and contributions.

With BEP-20 as the base layer, and Wherls’ platform features (Super Masternodes, staking, NFT marketplace, and affiliate programs) layered on top, we provide:

* A low-cost, high-speed infrastructure
* A sustainable token economy with real-world use cases
* A decentralized participation model for long-term value generation

This combination ensures Wherls remains future-proof, adaptable, and fully aligned with the evolving Web3 landscape.

## 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.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://wherls.gitbook.io/wherls/why-do-we-need-bep-20-token-and-what-is-the-ultimate-solution.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
