BNB Chain is building a dedicated Layer 1 purpose-built for “agentic” trading — autonomous AI agents that execute trades on their own — with a testnet slated for late 2026 and a mainnet targeted for early 2027.

The chain targets sub-50ms transaction pre-confirmation and over 100,000 TPS, and removes the public mempool — a change meant to curb the front-running attacks common on open chains.

It complements the existing BNB Chain stack, whose AI-agent ecosystem has already grown to some 150,000 deployed agents across the network.
