BNB Chain Unveils New Layer 1 for Agentic Trading, Targets 2027 Mainnet

BNB Chain plans a new Layer 1 blockchain for agentic trading with AI support, 100,000+ TPS, faster transactions, and a 2027 mainnet launch.

BNB Chain has announced plans to build a new Layer 1 blockchain for agentic trading. The new network will work alongside the existing BNB Chain ecosystem. It’s designed for quicker transactions and an improved trading experience. The testnet will be launched in late 2026. The mainnet launch is expected in early 2027.

BNB Chain Introduces High-Speed Blockchain for AI Trading

The official roadmap states that the new blockchain will be used for high-frequency and AI-powered trading. It targets more than 100,000 transactions per second. It also seeks to achieve preconfirmation of transactions within 50 milliseconds. Also, the time of block finality should be less than 1 second.

The new Layer 1 eliminates the public mempool with a feature called TxStream. Rather, transactions will be directed straight to the block leader. Therefore, traders can have less time delays. The design also helps to minimize front-running and sandwich attacks.

The network will offer a centralized exchange-like trading experience, said BNB Chain CTO David Z. Users will still be responsible for their own assets, however. Meanwhile, the blockchain will be transparent and decentralized.

The network was enhanced during the first half of 2026 with several technology enhancements. An important feature is the Block-Level Access List (BAL). It makes the network more efficient in handling transactions. As a result, parallel execution will be easier in the future.

Another improvement is the Incremental Snapshot technology. It enables new and offline nodes to catch up with the blockchain much quicker. In the meantime, EVM SuperInstruction combines common operations to decrease processing work.

The BSC Rust client has also been fully compatible with Reth v2.0. The update adds support for Sparse Trie Cache, Proof V2, and RocksDB. These enhancements have doubled client performance, according to BNB Chain.

BNB Chain Expands AI Tools and Enterprise Features

BNB Chain also launched new developer tools. It introduced BNB Agent Studio and BNB Agent SDK. These are the tools that enable self-sustaining AI agents. They also support AWS Bedrock AgentCore and large language model gateways.

The team worked on enhancing its Middleware Payment Protocol SDK. This platform enables developers to develop payment services more easily. In the meantime, BNB Chain is working on privacy solutions for institutions that require regulatory compliance.

During the second half of 2026, BNB Chain plans to double the current throughput of BSC mainnet. The company plans to expand by a factor of 10 later on. It will also enhance resource isolation. Thus, one application will not slow down other applications.

The roadmap also covers improved gas fee management. BNB Chain will not alter fees throughout the network, but rather for specific industries. This could reduce the expenses for Web2 and Web3 businesses.

PriorityLane will also be part of the new Layer 1. This feature allocates block space for critical services such as oracles, bridges, and important applications. Furthermore, native privacy features will enable confidential transactions and comply with compliance requirements.

BNB Chain Focuses on AI, Quantum Security, and Better User Experience

BNB Chain will also enhance the user experience. New account abstraction features will support gas sponsorship, transaction batching, scheduled transactions, passkey signing, and better account controls. The upgrades are designed to make blockchain more user-friendly.

Security is also a key priority. BNB Chain is working on quantum-resistant technology to future-proof itself against potential threats. The team is experimenting with new security techniques that are compatible with existing cryptography.

Last but not least, BNB Chain will keep collaborating with universities and research institutions. The company aims to create new blockchain technologies and introduce them to real products. Its long-term goal is to become a leading blockchain for AI applications, enterprise services, and high-speed trading.
