Background of BC Sunset
With the quick evolution of BSC, the Beacon Chain has become a burden. The cross-chain bridge that connects the two chains slows down the development iteration and always exposes BNB to a certain level of security vulnerabilities. BEP333 proposes to migrate the functionality of Beacon Chain to BSC, allowing Beacon Chain to retire.
The Beacon Chain Sunset is divided into multiple stages: first sunset upgrade, second sunset upgrade and final sunset upgrade. The second sunset upgrade is the second milestone of BEP333.
