BNB Chain has announced a significant upgrade through the Pascal Hardfork, aiming to revolutionize its smart contract functionality and transaction efficiency.

BNB Chain Embraces Pascal Hardfork, Advances Smart Contract Functionality

BNB Chain introduced the Pascal Hardfork on March 20, designed to boost transaction efficiency and improve compatibility with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). This update integrates Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP) 7702, enabling advanced functionalities such as gas abstraction, smart contract wallets, and batch transactions. The Pascal Hardfork marks a major step in the network’s development, positioning it as an early adopter of this critical EVM enhancement. A key feature of EIP-7702 is the introduction of smart contract wallets, allowing for gasless transactions, batch approvals, and smoother asset swaps. The upgrade is also expected to improve user onboarding and provide greater flexibility for dApp developers.

Pi Network Community Voices Concerns Over Binance Listing Vote

The Pi Network community has raised serious concerns over Binance’s handling of the Pi Network token listing process. Despite claiming to launch a “First Vote to List,” Binance’s actions seem to ignore the overwhelming support the Pi Network already garnered in the initial vote held on February 17, 2025. With over 86% of the votes cast in favor of listing Pi Network, the community is questioning Binance’s transparency and commitment to the promises made. The community urges Binance to honor its commitment and protect its reputation.
