BNB Chain plans a new Layer 1 network using BNB for fees and governance, with testnet by 2026.

BNB Chain is developing a new Layer 1 blockchain network that will operate alongside its existing BNB Smart Chain. This new network will use BNB as its fee, staking, and governance token, without issuing a new token. It aims to process blocks every 200 milliseconds and enable transaction pre-confirmations in about 20 milliseconds. The project is currently in internal development with multiple validators, targeting a testnet launch by the end of 2026 and a mainnet launch in early 2027. This network will connect to BNB Smart Chain via a native cross-chain bridge, supporting a multi-chain ecosystem under a single token, BNB.

The news about BNB Chain's new Layer 1 blockchain provides context for readers following blockchain developments. As of Oct 26, 2026 07:02 WIB, Pluang's market breadth shows 9 of 50 major cryptocurrencies rose while 40 fell. Notable movers include SAND at Rp860 with a 1-day change of -4.15%, XTZ at Rp5.153 down 3.79%, and THETA at Rp3.294 down 2.60%.
