BNB could be a beneficiary of major upgrade that will allow Ethereum compatibility and community co-governance.
- BNB Chain sets the 20th of March for the Pascal Hardfork to boost Ethereum compatibility on its mainnet. Binance has introduced a community co-governance model that allows users to vote on token listings and delistings.
Binance Chain has set the Pascal Hardfork for the 20th of March, which allows Ethereum [ETH] compatibility on mainnet.
After a successful testnet, Ethereum’s EIP-7702 enables smart contract wallets to function with gasless transactions, batch approvals, and multi-signature support.
These aim to improve the user experience and easier onboarding to Web3 through support for dApps to pay for gas fees.
BNB Chain on X (formerly Twitter) noted the upgrade entailed the activation of BEP-439, with security through successful verification of transactions over the curve of BLS12-381.

Node operators, validators, and exchanges need to update to v1.5.7 to achieve compatibility or desync otherwise. The upgrade is a component of BNB Chain’s 2025 roadmap.
It comprised the April Lorentz Hardfork (1.5-second blocks) and June Maxwell Hardfork (0.75-second blocks). This would enhance transaction speed and dev freedom on the EVM-compatible chain.
Community co-governance model as AI agents come on BSC
Binance introduced a community co-governance model, allowing users to vote on token listings and delistings on the BNB Smart Chain.
This approach enhances transparency and quality assurance through decentralized decision-making, enabling the community to prioritize top-tier projects freely.
Introducing “Vote to List” and “Vote to Delist” mechanisms to enable greater community participation and give users a stronger voice in the listing process.
Amid the background of AI integration in BSC, this model makes use of analytics to empower voters with insights into token performance, security audits, and market trends to enable informed choices.
The voting system, integrated into Binance’s platform, uses BNB staking for eligibility, with votes weighted by stake size.
This move is in line with the ongoing upgrades for BSC, including the upcoming Pascal Hardfork, to increase Ethereum compatibility and propel a more inclusive, AI-driven ecosystem.
BNB’s price action and prediction
Meanwhile, the upgrade could boost the price of Binance to the recent decline, but the impact might not be felt instantly.
BNB’s 4H chart suggested prominent structure shifts from the Change of Character (CHoCH) and Break of Structure (BOS) events.
As at the time of writing, BNB traded at $564.56, challenging the $550-$575 level. A CHoCH at $675 and BOS at $600 suggested bearish strength, with the price declining from $725.

Maintaining above $550 can possibly have the buyers push to $600, testing the BOS level. But not having $550, BNB may drop below $525 which would be the $500 price level.
Another CHoCH at $575 showed resistance; a break higher may target $650, but a rejection would validate more weakness to $525-$500, consistent with the general altcoin decline.
