BNB Smart Chain is an EVM network secured by Proof‑of‑Staked Authority where 21 validators rotate every epoch, offering 3‑second block times. Projects benefit from low fees (< $0.05) and a vast ecosystem seeded by Binance Launchpad. The 2024 Moran upgrade implemented the BEP‑336 blob transaction format akin to Ethereum’s EIP‑4844.
Hyperliquid is a performance‑tuned Layer‑1 that employs HyperBFT consensus—an optimised HotStuff variant—to finalise blocks in 400 ms. Its on‑chain order book matches > 100k orders per second without gas, made possible by an in‑memory state machine replicated across 32 validators. Launched in April 2024, the chain settles $4‑6 billion daily volume in perpetual futures and supports CosmWasm smart contracts for third‑party dApps.
