BNB Chain has announced an ambitious development plan through 2026 aimed at a tenfold increase in network performance. Following the successful hard forks Lorentz and Maxwell in the first half of 2025, the blockchain has already reduced block creation time to 0.75 seconds and accelerated transaction finality to 1.875 seconds. This has allowed processing up to 17.6 million transactions per day with an average trading volume of $9.3 billion. In the second half of 2025, the team plans to increase the gas limit in the block to 1 billion units, enabling the processing of 5000 swaps per second on decentralized exchanges (DEX).
In 2026, BNB Chain will begin restructuring its architecture, implementing sub-150 ms finality, supporting 20,000+ transactions per second, and incorporating built-in privacy features. The new Rust client based on Reth and the optimization of transaction execution will make the network competitive with traditional financial platforms like Nasdaq. These updates will strengthen BNB Chain's position, which already ranks fourth in TVL in the DeFi ecosystem.
