Binance news is drawing attention as the BNB Chain prepares for the Pasteur hardfork on August 25, while Binance also moves against 16 crypto platforms under new US and EU sanctions, adding fresh changes across its ecosystem.

Binance Smart Chain Pasteur Upgrade Brings More Capacity

BNB Chain is set to activate the Pasteur hardfork on its mainnet at 02:30 AM UTC on August 25. The upgrade follows its testnet launch on July 21 and is aimed at making better use of the network speed already gained from earlier upgrades.

The BNB Chain previously moved to 0.45-second block times through the Fermi upgrade, while Osaka/Mendel helped keep the network stable at that pace. Pasteur now focuses on carrying more transactions within the same time window while also fixing weaknesses linked to validator power and network security. Three proposals are included under the upgrade, with BEP-682, BEP-695 and BEP-675 handling the main changes.
