The BNB Chain is set to undergo a major upgrade called the Pasteur hardfork on August 25, aiming to increase network capacity and improve security.

The upgrade comes after the Binance Smart Chain previously moved to 0.45-second block times through the Fermi upgrade, with Osaka/Mendel helping to keep the network stable at that pace.

Pasteur focuses on carrying more transactions within the same time window while also fixing weaknesses linked to validator power and network security.
