BNB Chain Introduces BAP Mechanism for Seamless Application Collaboration

BNB Chain's development team has announced the introduction of the BNB Application Proposal (BAP) mechanism to facilitate seamless collaboration among applications as the ecosystem continues to expand. According to Odaily, this mechanism allows developers to agree on application layer standards, such as NFT utility, AI agent behavior, and identity norms, without affecting the consensus layer or Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). The first proposal, BAP-578, introduces the Non-Fungible Agent (NFA) token standard. This standard defines NFAs as AI-driven, on-chain assets capable of autonomous operation, including wallet holding, executing transactions, recording behavior history, and functioning across multiple decentralized applications (dApps). BAP-578 is considered a foundational element of the "agent economy," aiming to promote the flow and collaboration of AI agents within the BNB Chain ecosystem under a unified standard. BNB Chain emphasizes that BAP is designed to be community-driven, encouraging developers to review BAP-578, provide feedback, or submit new BAPs to collectively shape the application layer standard system.
