BNB Smart Chain is rolling out the Fermi upgrade within the next couple of days, and it's bringing some solid improvements to the table.

Expect block times to drop to around 0.45 seconds—that means transactions get confirmed faster. The finality mechanism gets a real boost as the network handles more volume, so you're looking at stronger security guarantees. And when things scale up, app performance stays smooth instead of getting sluggish.

These upgrades focus on making the chain more reliable and responsive for devs and users alike.
