Odaily News According to official news, BSC has completed the Maxwell fork upgrade. After this upgrade, the transaction speed has been improved (block time has been shortened from 1.5 seconds to 0.75 seconds), the network responsiveness has been improved, and the performance of validators on BSC has been optimized.
The upgrade includes three major proposals, including BEP-524, BEP-563 and BEP-564, each of which focuses on optimizing performance and scalability. BEP-524 introduces faster block intervals to achieve near-instant transaction confirmation;
BEP-563 strengthens the validator consensus process by enhancing peer-to-peer messaging and reducing the risk of missed votes and synchronization delays;
BEP-564 introduces two new message types, including GetBlocksByRangeMsg and RangeBlocksMsg, to speed up data synchronization across validator nodes.
