Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (@cz_binance) has reignited the conversation around fees on BNB Chain (@BNBCHAIN). His call is bold: slash gas from 0.1 Gwei to 0.05 Gwei, cutting average transaction costs nearly in half. That would make BNB one of the cheapest major blockchains in 2025,on par with Solana and Base,while maintaining performance for traders and builders. Gas fees matter. They decide where traders build, where liquidity flows, and where innovation happens.

For high-frequency traders and market makers, even small fee differences shape where liquidity flows. Lower fees also attract new apps and retail users who may otherwise avoid costly networks like Ethereum. BNB Chain validators are proposing to cut gas from 0.1 to 0.05 Gwei and shorten block intervals from 750ms to 450ms, dropping fees to about $0.005 per tx and keeping BSC competitive with Solana and Base. Past cuts from 3→1 Gwei and 1→0.1 Gwei lowered fees 75% and boosted daily… — Wu Blockchain (@WuBlockchain) September 24, 2025 BNB Chain validators are now proposing two big changes: Cut minimum gas from 0.1 Gwei → 0.05 Gwei Shorten block intervals from 750ms → 450ms If approved, this would push median fees down to ~$0.005 per tx. That cements BSC’s role as a low-cost chain for trading, swaps, and onchain experimentation. A Track Record of Bold Cuts This isn’t new territory. BNB Chain has repeatedly slashed gas, and each time activity soared: April 2024: Gas fell 3 Gwei → 1 Gwei (–67%) May 2025: Gas fell 1 Gwei → 0.1 Gwei (–90%) The…
