BIA plans to host global events to connect early-stage projects with investors and experts. Funding requirements for startups remain unclear, but selection criteria will focus on innovation, scalability, and alignment with the BNB Chain ecosystem.

In February, BNB Chain also revealed its tech roadmap for 2025, emphasizing artificial intelligence to enhance transaction speeds and security. The blockchain, initially developed by Binance, aims for sub-second transaction latency, gasless transactions, and the capacity to handle 100 million transactions daily. Furthermore, it is addressing long-standing security issues, particularly those related to maximal extractable value exploits.
