BNB Chain Releases 2026 Second Half Technology Roadmap: BSC Throughput Target to Double
Odaily Odaily reports that BNB Chain has released its technology roadmap for the second half of 2026, announcing that it will continue to optimize speed, throughput, and protocol stability, and plans to double the throughput of the BSC mainnet again, while developing a new generation of Layer 1 architecture for the next decade. BNB Chain stated that in the first half of 2026, BSC completed several performance upgrades, including reducing the block interval from 750 milliseconds to 450 milliseconds, decreasing the memory finality time from 1125 milliseconds to 650 milliseconds, and increasing the baseline throughput from approximately 2800 TPS to approximately 5200 TPS. At the middleware level, BNB Chain also advanced the construction of AI agents and payment infrastructure, including launching BNB Agent Studio and BNB Agent SDK to support the deployment of self-governed on-chain AI agents; it also continued to improve the Middleware Payment Protocol (MPP) SDK and explored institutional-grade privacy frameworks. For the second half of 2026, BNB Chain has proposed three core objectives: Double the throughput: Through BEP-675, BAL integration and EVM execution optimization, the BSC mainnet performance is further improved, with the long-term goal of achieving a 10x performance increase for the entire BNB Chain; Reduce the impact of network congestion: Improve stability during peak periods through resource isolation, dedicated transaction channels, and a transaction inclusion mechanism based on the FOCIL concept; Lowering the barrier to entry: Optimizing gas fee structures for different industries to reduce the cost for enterprises to enter Web2 and Web3 application scenarios.
BNB Chain plans to launch a new Layer 1 blockchain, with the mainnet expected to go live in 2027.
According to Mars Finance, BNB Chain is developing a new Layer 1 blockchain for Agentic Trading and has released its first detailed architecture information after months of development. According to BNB Chain's technology roadmap for the second half of 2026, the new chain will run in parallel with the existing BNB Chain ecosystem, aiming to achieve transaction preconfirmation of less than 50 milliseconds. This aims to provide an execution experience close to that of a centralized exchange (CEX) while retaining the advantages of on-chain self-custody and transparency. In terms of technical architecture, the new chain will remove the traditional public mempool and introduce a transaction transmission mechanism called "TxStream," which directly sends transactions to block producers to reduce latency and minimize MEV extraction behaviors such as sandwich attacks.
TermiX, the agent-based commercial clearing layer, has officially launched mainnet and released the BNB Chain ecosystem Agents Marketplace: Agent.family
According to Mars Finance, TermiX, an AI agent commercial clearing layer, has officially launched mainnet and introduced the BNB Chain ecosystem Agents Marketplace. Agents can register ERC8004-based Agent IDs on the marketplace and post, accept, and verify over 120 different types of Agent Jobs. Major agents, including OpenClaw and Hermes, can integrate TermiX Skills with a single click, gaining the ability to conduct agent commercial activities globally. TermiX is reportedly an AI agent commercial clearing layer on the BNB Chain, and in May of this year, it announced a $1 million investment from YZi Labs.
