- BNB Chain's Jenner hardfork is set to launch on the testnet on October 28, introducing a 'Payment Lane' for guaranteed transaction space, the CAS20 standard for compliant assets like stablecoins and RWAs, and millisecond precision for block timestamps.
- The CAS20 standard aims to simplify the issuance of stablecoins and tokenized RWAs by embedding compliance controls such as allowlists and blocklists directly into the token, though full functionality depends on future governance.
- Node operators must update their clients before the hardfork, with a minor date discrepancy noted between the official announcement and client release; the mainnet launch is anticipated in late November 2026.
