COINOTAG reported on September 24 that BNB Chain validators have proposed cutting the minimum Gas from 0.1 Gwei to 0.05 Gwei and reducing the block interval from 750ms to 450ms. If adopted, the adjustments would lower the estimated transaction fee to roughly $0.005, enhancing BSC‘s fee competitiveness against base Layer 1 networks.
The proposal also codifies a governance principle: when on-chain staking yield remains above 0.5%, the protocol should pursue the lowest sustainable Gas fee. The roadmap cites a long-term target near $0.001 per transaction, contingent on validator approval and ongoing network risk assessments.
