Introduction
Mo Chain is a BSC-compatible Layer-1 built by forking bnb-chain/bsc v1.7.3. It uses Parlia PoSA consensus with BLS fast finality and targets a ~450 ms block time.
Why another BSC-style chain
- EVM + BSC tooling out of the box — anything that runs on BSC (MetaMask, Hardhat, Foundry, ethers/viem, Uniswap forks, subgraphs) runs here with only a chain-config change.
- Fast blocks — sub-second blocks for responsive dApps.
- Full DeFi stack pre-deployed — Multicall3 at the canonical address, Uniswap V2 + V3, wrapped native (WMO), stablecoins, a bridge, and ENS-style
.monaming.
Relationship to BSC
| Aspect | Mo Chain | BSC mainnet |
|---|---|---|
| Client | bnb-chain/bsc v1.7.3 fork | same lineage |
| Consensus | Parlia PoSA + BLS finality | Parlia PoSA + BLS finality |
| System contracts | bsc-genesis-contract v1.2.5 | same family |
| Block time | ~450 ms | ~750 ms–3 s |
| Native coin | MO | BNB |
| Multicall3 | canonical 0xcA11…CA11 | canonical 0xcA11…CA11 |
Because we follow the upstream path (standard fork order, standard contracts), tooling that hard-codes BSC behavior generally just works.
Roadmap
- Now (Testnet) — public RPC, explorer, faucet, DEX, bridge, wallet onboarding, ENS, dev portal.
- Graduate — multisig + timelock on all owners, audit package, synthetic monitoring, validator onboarding.
- Mainnet — production validator set, liquid staking, hardened bridge (N-of-M).
Next steps
- Quick Start — add the network and send your first transaction in minutes.
- Architecture — how the chain, apps, and gateway fit together.
