BNB Chain is preparing to activate the Pasteur Hard Fork BNB Chain is preparing to activate the Pasteur upgrade on the main BNB Smart Chain network on August 25, 2026 at 02:30 UTC. The upgrade focuses on 3 main pillars: 🔐 Stronger security for bridges by preventing the counting of duplicate signatures from the same validator. 🛡️ Improved validator management and stricter rules for key rotation and permissions. ⚡ Increasing network efficiency, as network tests showed an increase in capacity from around 1,237 to 2,324 TPS while maintaining block time. This step reflects BNB Chain’s focus on combining security + speed + scalability as network usage continues to grow. 📌 The most important question: will these technical improvements translate into a real increase in network activity and demand for BNB? #BNBChainToActivatePasteurHardFork
