The Countdown Has Begun for the BNB Chain Network Update Named Pasteur

The countdown has begun for the BNB Chain's upcoming hard fork, named "Pasteur," scheduled for the mainnet on August 25, 2026. Unlike previous updates focused on speed, Pasteur aims for comprehensive enhancements centered on security and network efficiency. It incorporates three key proposals under BEP-673: BEP-682 strengthens bridge validation, BEP-695 ensures proper validator key rotation to prevent undue power concentration, and BEP-675 increases block size while maintaining speed, allowing blocks to hold more transactions. These improvements are designed to enhance the security of the bridge, staking, and governance, while also boosting network capacity. The hard fork is currently active on the BSC testnet, and node operators are urged to upgrade to version 1.7.7 before the mainnet activation. This update aligns with BNB Chain's goal to double mainnet throughput and achieve a tenfold performance improvement in the latter half of the year.

BSC Confirms Pasteur Hard Fork Release Date at the End of August

BNB Chain has confirmed that the Pasteur hard fork for the BNB Smart Chain (BSC) mainnet will activate at 02:30 UTC on August 25, 2026. Node operators must upgrade to client version 1.7.7 by that time to avoid network disconnection. The hard fork, packaged under the BEP-673 meta-proposal, consolidates three other proposals: BEP-682, BEP-695, and BEP-675. BEP-682 aims to secure cross-chain bridges by fixing a vulnerability where validator signatures in asset transfers could be counted multiple times, allowing a threshold to be met with fewer genuine signatures. The update ensures duplicate signatures are removed before counting. BEP-695 addresses a flaw in staking and governance systems where a validator's old consensus key, after being rotated for maintenance, could retain its administrative privileges. The fix ensures retired keys immediately lose their authority and prevents validators from avoiding slashing through key rotation. BEP-675 aims to increase network throughput. It allows a block proposer to submit a pre-executed block, reducing the time validators spend re-executing transactions. Testnet results showed validator execution time dropped from 125ms to 15ms, and throughput increased by nearly 88% to 2,324 TPS, with average block gas usage rising significantly. Node operators must follow detailed upgrade procedures. Developers using the BEP-675 scheme may need to run a full node instead of a light client, as they are now responsible for creating fully executed blocks.
