With a midway perspective titled “The Future of the BNB Chain: Remaining Outlook for 2025 and 2026,” the team behind the BNB Chain detailed its roadmap, outcomes and vision for directing blockchain towards true popular adoption.
The BNB Chain will promote performance upgrades in 2025 and introduce native privacy and high performance architectures in 2026. With the ambition to combine the speed of centralized exchange with the freedom of a decentralized blockchain, the BNB chain enters the transition phase.
BNB Chain Performance
Having struggled to balance performance, cost and user control, the BNB chain has proven to be one of the pioneering platforms that drive technological advancements beyond traditional limits. As we enter 2025, the ecosystem is focused on improving the user experience, preparing for the wave of 2026 technical breakthroughs.
The team said that in the first half of 2025, the BNB chain achieved significant improvements in technical performance. Block production time is reduced to just 0.75 seconds, and transaction finality takes only 1.875 seconds.
Thanks to these improvements, the network has processed 12.4 million transactions, achieving an average daily transaction volume of $9.3 billion. Additionally, it set records with 17.6 million transactions per day.
The average gas fee has been reduced to just $0.01, making the BNB chain one of the most cost-effective blockchain networks today. In particular, the platform also recorded a 95% reduction in harmful MEV activity, increasing the fairness of the chain experience.
BNB Chain is planning a major upgrade
These results are clearly just the beginning. The BNB chain pursues a broader vision. This is a next-generation blockchain infrastructure designed to compete directly with centralized exchange (CEXS) from a performance standpoint.
“It is clear that current architectures face natural limitations in order to achieve their next goal of providing a CEX-like experience to serve millions of users. This aims to build an infrastructure that handles centralized exchange and traditional finance, as there was a wave of liquidity flowing through the on-chain,” the BNB Chain Team said.
The project develops a series of strategic innovations, including the development of rust-based clients. It also integrates “super instructions” to optimize transaction processing and upgrade StatedB to enhance scalability and data storage.
The ultimate goal is to make the BNB chain 20 times stronger than it is today. It aims to ultimately process over 20,000 transactions (TPS) per second (150 milliseconds). This feature is sufficient to support large-scale decentralized applications, from web3 games to complex financial platforms.
A particularly important milestone is efforts to build the privacy of the BNB chain natively into the core architecture. In a world where personal data is increasingly being monitored, embedding privacy at the protocol level is a strategic move.
The project aims to serve more than 200 million users. This is a number that not only competes with existing chains, but also highlights ambitions.
With a roadmap that will grow from late 2025 to 2026, the BNB chain is no longer the blockchain of the Binance ecosystem. Becoming a core infrastructure for the fast, low-cost user-controlled Web3 world is redefineing its role.
