What is dust?
In the cryptocurrency world, dust refers to any small amount of coins or tokens. The amount is generally so small that it is often forgotten or ignored. Bitcoin is divisible into 100 million satoshis, meaning that one satoshi is 0.00000001 bitcoin. So, you can refer to an amount smaller than a few hundred satoshis as dust. These amounts are often smaller than the transaction fees required to transfer them.
Within a cryptocurrency exchange, however, the term dust refers to small fractions of cryptocurrencies that are left from trades. Most exchanges have a minimum trade requirement, meaning that these small amounts are unable to be transacted.
Fortunately, Binance allows you to convert your dust into BNB.
How to convert your dust
To convert your dust into BNB, navigate to your exchange wallet and click on balances.
On your balances page - click on the button labeled 'Convert to BNB'

In order to qualify the dust must have a value less than 0.001BTC
You can convert multiple coins at the same time. When you have selected the coins that you wish to convert, the estimated BNB value will be shown.
Please note that this is an estimation only as the conversion to BNB is made according to the current market price at the time of conversion which is exactly at the time the ‘Convert to BNB’ button is clicked.
Once you have clicked ‘Convert to BNB’ a confirmation window will appear.
Once you have confirmed that you wish to convert your BNB, click the ‘Confirm’ button and you will be directed to a page that confirms your conversion has been completed.
