BNB Chain to implement 'Osaka/Mendel' hard fork on April 28

BNB Chain will implement its Osaka/Mendel hard fork on the mainnet at 2:30 a.m. UTC on April 28, the project announced in a blog post. The upgrade includes two main changes. First, it will limit Blob transactions on a per-block basis to prevent large transactions from slowing down block processing. Second, it will introduce an in-memory voting pool to process validator votes directly from memory. This will improve fast finality, enhancing the speed and stability of transaction confirmations.
