BNB Greenfield, the innovative data-as-an-asset network, is gearing up to execute the Hulunbeier hardfork, a substantive move set to introduce new updates and improvements to the platform.
Key pieces of information and necessary actions include:
- The Testnet Hulunbeier hardfork will take place at block height 4,849,568, projected to occur on February 1st, 07:00 AM UTC.
- The Mainnet Hulunbeier hardfork is set to occur at block height 4,653,883, estimated to transpire on February 22nd, 07:00 AM UTC.
- Validators and service providers (SPs) are required to upgrade to the latest version—greenfield v1.3.0 for validators and greenfield-storage-provider v1.3.0 for SPs—prior to the hardfork.
- Importantly, this hardfork will not influence your existing account balance on Greenfield, and all data stored on the Greenfield Testnet will remain accessible.
The developer community introduces several new valuable features and bug fixes, enhancing the overall user experience on Greenfield. These enhancements include the Greenfield Cross-Chain Permission Module and a simplified process for Storage Provider exits.
In the realm of data storage, Greenfield provides a resilient alternative to conventional centralized storage services by dispersing data across multiple nodes. This strategic deployment prevents a singular point of failure, offering a notably stable and secure data storage solution.
BNB Greenfield's distinctive features make it an optimal choice for applications pertaining to decentralized physical infrastructure ownership and monetization (DePIN) and artificial intelligence (AI). These applications can leverage the platform's decentralized data storage, user control over personal information, and opportunities for data monetization.
The ongoing commitment of the BNB Chain to user experience optimization and platform improvement is embodied in the BNB Greenfield Hulunbeier upgrade. This commitment shines through in the introduction of novel features, consistent bug resolution efforts, and responsive attention to community feedback.
