BSC prepares for the major Fermi upgrade: what to expect for the network in early 2026
The BNB Smart Chain blockchain network is approaching a significant technological breakthrough. On January 14, 2026, at 2:30 AM, the highly anticipated Fermi hard fork is scheduled to launch, which will fundamentally overhaul the validation architecture and optimize critical network operations.
What will change with update v1.6.5
The new version v1.6.5 introduces a number of fundamental improvements. First and foremost, the system will receive a redesigned gas fee mechanism, allowing for more flexible network load management. Developers have also eliminated the outdated handshake process from the architecture, simplifying node interactions.
Special attention has been given to state synchronization — the BSC team has optimized checkpoint filters, ensuring more reliable and faster data synchronization for validators.
Why is this relevant right now
BSC continues to demonstrate its status as one of the most dynamic ecosystems. Recent metrics show that the network has attracted 52.5 million unique addresses, confirming its position as the most active blockchain platform in the space. For a network of this scale, the Fermi upgrade becomes a necessity, helping to maintain performance and reliability at the required level.
The update aims to strengthen validator flexibility and enhance overall architecture security, which is especially important amid growing scalability demands.
Securing leadership by 2026
The Fermi hard fork is another step in BSC’s strategy of continuous technical improvement. In the competitive landscape of blockchain, such updates become key factors that determine the long-term viability of the network and its attractiveness to developers and users.
