BNB Beacon Chain Final Sunset Fork: How to Safeguard Your Tokens
On July 14, 2024, the BNB Beacon Chain underwent its Second Sunset Fork, marking a significant milestone in its transition process. As we approach the final stages of this transition, it’s crucial to understand the upcoming changes and how to ensure the safety of your assets.
What’s Happening Next?
The BNB Beacon Chain will enter the 4th stage of the fusion process in mid-August 2024. This stage is known as the BNB Beacon Chain Final Sunset Fork. During this period, several critical changes will occur:
Disabling Cross-Chain Operations: The cross-chain functionality between Binance Smart Chain (BSC) and BNB Beacon Chain will be disabled. This means that after the fork, transactions between these two chains will no longer be possible.
Publishing BNB Beacon Chain Balance Dump: A balance dump of the BNB Beacon Chain will be published. This is an essential step for tracking and verifying assets as the chain transitions.
Shutdown of Validator Nodes: Validator nodes on the BNB Beacon Chain will be shut down. This step is crucial for completing the transition and ensuring the stability of the BSC network.
