Today, we’ve successfully launched Band Oracle v3 Testnet Phase 2 — our biggest upgrade yet.
This release makes BandChain faster, more transparent, and more interoperable than ever.
Let’s break down what’s new👇
What did we achieve?
— 3x Faster blocktime from 3s —> 1s
— 10x symbols cap expand from 100 —> 300 symbols
— 10x Higher Throughputs: 40k to 400k TX/day
— 3x Max TXs Support/ Day: 7.2M TXs —> 21.6M TXs
🌐 New Data Tunnel routes are LIVE
We’re expanding Band’s oracle reach across the multi-chain world:
—> @cosmos’s IBC-Hook: seamless interchain contract querying
—> @routerprotocol: Bridging & EVM chains & Soon on @Solana
—> @axelar: ongoing collab for cross-chain verified feeds
Interoperability is no longer a wishlist — it’s real.
🛠️ Minor upgrades with major impact:
— Cylinder CLI runs standalone
— Signal times are now block-based (not machine time)
— Auto-select TSS groups
— Yoda now auto-bumps gas to avoid TX failure
— Telemetry for BeginBlock/EndBlock durations
It’s all about smoother ops for devs and validators.
🧪 What’s next?
✅ Recap + docs for Testnet Phase 2
✅ More Data Tunnel stress testing
✅ Backend + validator-side optimizations
🚀 Mainnet Launch in Q3 2025
We’re almost there.
Band Oracle v3 is becoming the go-to open data oracle for all ecosystems.
Fast. Transparent. New standard for Multi-chain native.
Thanks to the validators, devs, partners, and Band community for building this with us. Let’s keep going.
