BNB Chain plans a new fast EVM layer-1 blockchain with sub-second transaction finality.

BNB Chain is developing a new high-performance, EVM-compatible layer-1 blockchain called NewL1, targeting 200 ms block times and sub-second transaction finality to support trading and AI workloads. This network aims to process over 100,000 transactions per second using an enhanced consensus mechanism and parallel execution. Founder CZ confirmed BNB will remain the sole token for gas, staking, and governance across all BNB Chain networks. A public testnet is expected by late 2026, with a full mainnet launch planned for early 2027, aiming to bring decentralized trading closer to the speed of centralized exchanges while maintaining asset self-custody.

BNB Chain's new high-performance EVM layer-1 blockchain plans come as only 5 of 50 major cryptocurrencies on Pluang rose today.
