Svmuu News: BNB Chain has released its technical roadmap for the second half of 2026, announcing that it will continue to focus on optimizing speed, throughput, and protocol stability. The chain plans to double the BSC mainnet’s throughput once again while developing a next-generation Layer 1 architecture for the coming decade.
BNB Chain stated that in the first half of 2026, BSC had completed several performance upgrades, including reducing the block interval from 750 milliseconds to 450 milliseconds, lowering memory finality time from 1,125 milliseconds to 650 milliseconds, and increasing benchmark throughput from approximately 2,800 TPS to approximately 5,200 TPS. At the middleware level, BNB Chain has also advanced the development of AI agents and payment infrastructure, including the launch of BNB Agent Studio and the BNB Agent SDK to support the autonomous deployment of on-chain AI agents; simultaneously, it continues to refine the Middleware Payment Protocol (MPP) SDK and explore institutional-grade privacy frameworks.
For the second half of 2026, BNB Chain has set three core objectives:
Double throughput: Drive further performance improvements on the BSC mainnet through BEP-675, BAL integration, and EVM execution optimizations, with a long-term goal of achieving a 10-fold increase in BNB Chain’s overall performance;
Mitigate 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;
Lower the barrier to entry: Optimize gas fee structures for different industries to reduce the cost for enterprises to enter Web2 and Web3 application scenarios.
