Promote with Leviathan NewsBNB Chain's Osaka/Mendel hard fork lands April 28 with 9 BEPs — 6 adopted from Ethereum covering gas repricing, a new CLZ opcode, and secp256r1 crypto cost updates, plus BNB-specific Fast Finality improvements and blob transaction caps. After three consecutive speed-focused forks (Fermi, Maxwell, Lorentz) pushed block times down to ~1.5s, this upgrade explicitly shifts to network hardening and consistency under real-world load. The wholesale Ethereum EIP adoption tightens EVM alignment for devs, but also signals BNB Chain is past the "move fast and break things" phase.
