BNB Chain developers announced the Lorentz hard fork activation schedule for mainnet, with the upgrade set for block height 42,100,000. [^1]

SUI token posted a 2.31% gain, bringing its price to approximately $0.79 as it approaches a resistance cluster at $0.81. [^2]

On 2026-09-04, SUI was trading at $0.77 with a 24-hour change of 0.00% and confined to a $0.76-$0.80 band. [^3]

On 2026-09-04, top traders on Binance were 74.1% long with a long/short ratio of 2.85. [^4]

The Lorentz hard fork update includes BEP-341 transaction priority changes designed to reduce gas costs by 20% for network users. [^5]

Validators and node operators on BNB Chain will need to upgrade their software before the Lorentz hard fork trigger height. [^6]

The Lorentz hard fork is described as a test of coordination where if enough operators are prepared, the chain moves forward, but if not, the rollout can become messy. [^7]
