Important update for node operators: support for the BNB Chain Erigon execution client ended on Dec 31, 2025. If you are still running Erigon, you should migrate to Reth or Geth as soon as possible. This change follows the earlier announcement that @NodeReal_io would discontinue support for the BNB Chain Erigon client as part of a broader shift to strengthen performance, stability, and long-term client diversity. Going forward, BNB Chain officially supports two execution clients: • Reth (Rust-based) • Geth (Go-based) Erigon is no longer supported. Following the upcoming Mendel hardfork, it will also become fully unsupported and incompatible with the network. What node operators need to do now: If your infrastructure is still running Erigon, begin migration immediately and move to either Reth or Geth. This includes testing your setup, validating compatibility, and completing the transition ahead of Mendel. Migration resources: • • •
