BNB Chain Launches BAP Framework for Smarter Cross-App Collaboration

The BNB Chain development team has announced the launch of the BAP (BNB Application Proposal) framework, aimed at establishing unified application-layer standards to enable seamless collaboration across its growing ecosystem.

This mechanism allows developers to align on key topics like NFT utilities, AI agent behaviors, and identity protocols without altering consensus rules or the EVM. The first proposal, BAP-578, introduces the concept of 'Non-Fungible Agents (NFA)' — a groundbreaking approach to blockchain-based intelligence.

Understanding NFAs

NFAs are AI-powered on-chain assets capable of autonomous operation. They can hold wallets, execute transactions, maintain behavioral records, and coordinate across multiple dApps. This standard represents a major step toward building an 'agent economy' ecosystem on blockchain.

Community-Driven Standard Development

BNB Chain emphasizes that the BAP system is designed to be community-governed. Developers can review BAP-578, provide feedback, or submit new proposals to shape the future of application-layer protocols.

  • BAP works without core protocol modifications
  • NFAs enable cross-dApp intelligent coordination
  • Standard development process remains open and transparent
