Binance are introducing this to facilitate the trading of BTC and other leading coins on its Binance DEX – decentralized exchange. 

The reason for pegging assets to other coins is the need to trade BTC and other leading coins on Binance DEX, the decentralized marketplace.

Binance commented on the update and said:

The main benefit of offering crypto-pegged tokens is that, obviously, this makes available to Binance DEX traders the many coins that have their own blockchains and aren’t native on Binance Chain. With the increase in the selection of tokens available on Binance DEX, there should be an increase in trading volume and liquidity.
