BNB Chain Releases Layer 2 Testnet Based on Optimism's OP Stack
Developers expect the opBNB blockchain to reach speeds of 4,000 transactions per second at a targeted cost of 0.005 U.S. cents per transaction.
BNB Chain released the opBNB testnet, an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible blockchain based on Optimism's OP Stack, developers said in a release to CoinDesk.
Developers expect the opBNB testnet to reach speeds of 4,000 transactions per second (tps) at a targeted cost of 0.005 U.S. cents per transaction. These are similar speeds seen on blockchains such as Arbitrum, double those of BNB Chain, and significantly higher than Ethereum’s 30 tps.
