Description

Release v1.4.13 is a hard fork release for BSC Testnet, the HF name is: Bohr, there are 4 BEPs in Bohr:

• BEP-341: Validators can produce consecutive blocks
• BEP-402: Complete missing fields in Block Header to generate Signature
• BEP-404: Clear Miner History when Switching Validators Set
• BEP-410: Add Agent for Validators

Among these BEPs, BEP-341 holds the most significance as it proposes a change to the block production protocol. However, BEP-341 will only come into effect after the affirmative outcome of a governance vote.
And BEP-402 updates the block header signature logic, please pay special attention if your product involves the logic of block header verification.
The other 2 BEPs, BEP-404 and BEP-410 are for some enhancement and unlikely to have compatibility issue.

The target Bohr hard fork time will be:

• Testnet: 2024-08-20 01:23:16 AM UTC
• Mainnet: it is not determined yet, target Later Sep 2024
