BNB Chain has completed its latest major upgrade—the Fermi upgrade. This optimization has brought substantial performance improvements: block production speed increased by 40%, and on-chain confirmation time reduced to approximately 1 second. In addition to speed enhancements, the upgrade also optimized the validator coordination mechanism, further improving transaction execution efficiency. This is a continued breakthrough for BNB Chain in scalability—having successfully implemented two major upgrades previously. Through continuous iteration, BNB Chain's competitiveness in throughput and user experience continues to grow, providing a more stable and efficient infrastructure support for the on-chain ecosystem.

1 second confirmation? That's impressive, BNB didn't boast this time --- 40% speed increase, now that's real competition, not just slogans --- Details of the validator coordination mechanism optimization? Feels like something's missing --- Upgraded again and again, when will retail investors like me feel the difference in speed? --- Throughput increase is a good thing, it all depends on how the ecosystem projects follow up --- Compared to other L1s, BNB's response this time is quite quick, score --- The number 1 second sounds comfortable, but whether gas fees have decreased is the key --- Three iterations in, finally looking somewhat like proper infrastructure --- But on the other hand, faster speed raises security concerns—does this have safeguards? --- Thinking back to the previous upgrade, is this a substantial improvement or just marketing hype? Time will tell

1-second confirmation? Wow, this speed is really incredible. With this BNB upgrade, it feels like Ethereum is being left far behind. Speaking of a 40% speed increase, is it real or just hype? Can the test environment and mainnet be the same? Fermi upgrade? Another new name... but it is indeed a bit faster. Validator coordination optimization, honestly, still seems like a way to make quick profits. With such fast confirmation times, can the gas fees be lowered? That’s the real key. This is the third upgrade in a row, starting to have some confidence, though. They keep talking about optimizing the experience every day, just waiting to see when they will truly achieve seamless cross-chain transfers.

1 second confirmation? Sure, let me see if I can get some free rewards --- They've upgraded again, is it really faster this time or just more bragging --- A 40% increase isn't a big deal; the key is to reduce gas fees --- The validator mechanism has been optimized several times; when will it be our wallet balance's turn to be optimized --- I'm fed up, every upgrade claims to be stable and efficient, but still can't beat Sol --- Wait a minute, 1 second, are you serious? Seems like we can try some new tricks --- But honestly, BNB's pace still has some potential; continuous upgrades definitely cost money --- Blocks are produced faster now, when will transaction fees also drop quickly? Please!

A 40% speed increase? Sounds good, but I wonder if the gas fees can also be reduced.

Confirm in 1 second? I think it's possible, but why is the price still falling? That's really outrageous. Wait, a 40% speed increase—what does that mean? Is an arbitrage opportunity coming? Upgrade to Fermi and then build a position? Or wait a bit longer for on-chain data to tell the story? After all the talk about scaling solutions, when will the money actually start flowing? Validator coordination optimization—does that benefit small retail investors? I only care if BNB can double. Performance is off the charts, but the ecosystem remains the same; it might just be overhyped. I bet five bucks on this upgrade, but I still didn't get an airdrop.
