While 2024 was about recovery and laying foundations, 2025 will be remembered as the year BNB Chain reasserted its dominance.
The network successfully executed a series of hard forks — Lorentz in April and Maxwell in June — which paved the way for the Fermi initiation late in the year.
These weren’t just routine maintenance; they were fundamental changes in how the chain handles data, specifically through the introduction of “Super Instructions” and Parallel Execution (BEP-7928).
By implementing BEP-7928, the network transitioned from sequential transaction processing to a parallelized model, allowing multiple smart contracts to execute simultaneously.

This was further optimized by Super Instructions, a set of pre-compiled commands that reduced computational overhead for complex DeFi and AI transactions.
The results were immediate. Block times were slashed from 3 seconds to 0.75 seconds (and soon to 0.25 seconds).
Peak Daily Users: The network hit a yearly record of 4.8 million daily active users in December.
Throughput: The chain consistently handled over 15 million daily transactions, with a theoretical capacity targeting 20,000 TPS.

Gas Fees: Average fees plummeted by 98%, often sitting at a negligible 0.05 gwei.
If technical upgrades were the engine, “meme season” was the fuel.
In October 2025, the BNB Chain ecosystem experienced a speculative boom that rivaled the heights of 2021.
At the center of this movement was Four.meme, a native launchpad that briefly flipped Solana’s Pump.fun in 24-hour revenue.
