BNB Chain’s #Fermi Hard Fork slashes block time by 40%, from 750ms to 450ms — making it one of the fastest EVM chains ever. With 5 new BEPs, optimized MEV handling, and improved validator coordination, Fermi sets a new benchmark for speed, scalability, and developer performance. #BNBChain $BNB

⚡ Update: Release of the main update for #Fermi on #BNB #CHAIN on January 14

The update is expected to reduce block creation time from 0.75 seconds to just 0.45 seconds!

✅ Faster transactions, better stability for time-sensitive applications, efficient indexing (no need to download the entire transaction history), and improvements to the #EVM virtual machine.

The main update for Fermi is significant for decentralized finance (DeFi) users, as blockchain networks with longer block creation times and lower transaction rates make DeFi applications costly due to delays. Now, DeFi users can eliminate the slippage caused by delays.

📊 The number of active addresses on BNB Chain has risen to 2,871,208, nearing the number of active addresses on the high-throughput layer-one Solana blockchain.

BSC Schedules Fermi Hard Fork for January 14th 2026

The #BNBSmartChain has scheduled the activation of its #Fermi hard fork upgrade on the mainnet for January 14th 2026 at 02:30 UTC.

Validators and block builders are required to upgrade to supported software releases v1.6.4 or v1.6.5 before the fork to remain compatible with the network.

BNB Chain’s Fermi Hard Fork: Ushering in the 0.45s Era

The BNB Chain is set to undergo a transformative upgrade with the activation of the Fermi hard fork, scheduled for mainnet on January 14, 2026. Following a successful testnet phase in late 2025, this milestone represents a major leap in the network’s "Yellow Season" roadmap, aiming to bridge the performance gap between decentralized networks and traditional finance.

The headline feature of Fermi is a drastic reduction in block intervals, slashing times from 750 milliseconds to 450 milliseconds. This 40% increase in speed is specifically engineered to support "time-sensitive" applications, such as high-frequency #defi trading and real-time #Web3 gaming. Key technical components include BEP-619, which implements the short block interval, and BEP-610, introducing EVM Super Instructions to optimize smart contract execution and remove processing bottlenecks.
Beyond pure speed, the upgrade reinforces the ecosystem's push toward a "gasless" user experience. By leveraging Account Abstraction (EIP-7702), the network enables "Paymasters" where developers can sponsor user fees. This aligns with the ongoing "0 Fee Carnival," which allows users to transfer stablecoins like USDC and $USD1 with zero gas costs through partnered wallets and exchanges.

This upgrade arrives as the BNB Chain $BNB continues to challenge Solana $SOL for active address dominance, recently crossing 58 million monthly active addresses. As the BNB Chain targets 100 million daily transactions in 2026, the Fermi hard fork serves as the foundational bedrock for a more accessible, high-throughput ecosystem. By combining sub-second finality with fee-free stablecoin movement, the network is positioning itself as the premier destination for mass-market crypto adoption.
