BNB Chain Plans Layer 1 Blockchain for Agentic Trading, Targeting Sub-50ms Settlement and 100k+ TPS in Early 2027

BNB Chain announced plans to launch a new Layer 1 blockchain in early 2027 specifically designed for agentic trading, targeting transaction pre-confirmation times below 50 milliseconds and transaction throughput exceeding 100,000 TPS with sub-second finality.

The chain will eliminate public mempools to reduce front-running risks, route transactions directly to block producers via TxStream, and rotate block producers every 200 milliseconds. PriorityLane reserves block space for oracles, liquidations, and cross-chain bridges. The new blockchain will operate in parallel with BNB Smart Chain, with testnet deployment planned for late 2026 and mainnet launch targeting early 2027.
