Post-Pasteur BSC shifts most blocks to BEP-675 and increases block capacity

BNB Chain says BEP-675 has become the dominant block-building path after the Pasteur hard fork, accounting for about 98% of blocks in a recent three-day window. BidBlock V2 removes one redundant EVM execution pass before sealing and is averaging 28% more gas per block than Bid V1 on live mainnet traffic.

Post-Pasteur BSC shifts most blocks to BEP-675 and increases block capacity

BNB Chain has published an update on BNB Smart Chain after the Pasteur hard fork. According to the project, the BEP-675 block-building path quickly became dominant, powering about 98% of blocks in the latest three-day window. That makes the new path a mainnet operating mechanism rather than a small experimental share of production blocks.

The central change highlighted by BNB Chain is BidBlock V2. The team says V2 removes one redundant EVM execution pass before a block is sealed. Under live mainnet traffic, that reduction in duplicated work is accompanied by higher effective capacity: BidBlock V2 is averaging about 28% more gas per block than Bid V1.

The practical significance is greater block-building capacity, not a claim about the market price of BNB or a guaranteed increase in user activity. Gas per block measures how much computation a block can accommodate. BNB Chain also points to additional scaling work after Pasteur, while the reported 98% adoption and 28% capacity difference describe observed behavior of the current mechanism.

For node operators, developers and applications, the notable point is that BEP-675 is already handling the large majority of blocks and that the BidBlock V2 optimization is being measured on live network traffic. Future evaluation should focus on network stability, latency and load behavior as the scaling changes continue.
