We have updated all of our mainnet and testnet nodes to the latest BNB Smart Chain (BSC) hard-fork upgrades.
The Mainnet hard-fork upgrade Moran happened at block height 22,107,423 around 9AM UTC on 12th October. The testnet hard-fork upgrade happened at block height 23,603,940 on 11th October.
The release v1.1.16 is an urgent patch to mitigate the cross-chain infrastructure between Beacon Chain and Smart Chain. This update re-enabled the cross-chain communication and operations.
In summary, the changes aim to:
Cross-chain between BNB Beacon Chain and Smart Chain is back to normal. All the funds stuck in cross-chain transfers should either arrive in the target wallets or get refunded back to the source.
We have upgraded all of our BNB Chain (BSC) nodes to the latest v1.1.15 release.
The BNB Chain suspended operations earlier on Friday after an exploit on a cross-chain bridge, BSC Token Hub, was discovered that resulted in extra BNB. Estimates show that funds taken off the platform are around $100M.
BSC v1.1.15 is a hot fix and hard-fork release. The hard-fork height is 21962149.
In this release, several blacklist addresses are prohibited for further transactions due to the exploit.
All cross-chain transfers and communication between BNB Beacon Chain and BNB Smart Chain are disabled.
We've added some new features and provided support for more blockchain protocols to existing API endpoints.
Here is what's new:
List Unspent Transaction Outputs By Address - we've added a new response attribute isAvailable. Through this endpoint customers can list their transactions' unspent outputs by address.
Prepare An Account-Based Transaction From HD Wallet (xPub, yPub, zPub) - we've added a new response attribute unit. Using this API endpoint users can prepare a transaction for signing from a synced with Crypto APIs address from the specific xPub.
Derive And Sync New Change Addresses - we've expanded the support for more blockchains in this API and customers can now use it with Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin, Dash, Dogecoin and ZCash.
Derive And Sync New Receiving Address - we've added more supported blockchains in this API endpoint and customers can now use it also with Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin, Dash, Dogecoin, ZCash, XRP, Tron and Ethereum Classic.

We continue working to provide BSC Mainnet support for more products and endpoints and launch new features and functionalities. Stay tuned!
The Crypto APIs Team
We are pleased to announce the launch of more new endpoints for interacting with blockchain protocols and getting notified for anything that happens on-chain.
Here is what’s new:
Wallet as a Service: Create New Master Wallet
Through this endpoint customers can easily create a new Master Wallet through the API. The user provides the desired Wallet name and in return the response includes the walletId.
When creating a wallet, the customer can select whether to create a Testnet or Mainnet wallet. That new Wallet can be additionally also backed up through the Crypto APIs Dashboard.
Improvement: XRP has been as a possible value to endpoint "Create Coins Transaction From Address for Whole Amount"
Blockchain Webhooks: New Reverted Block
The Ethereum mainnet transition to Proof-of-Stake has been successfully completed. The migration happened today, September 15, 2022, after the blockchain reached a terminal total difficulty of 58,750,000,000T at 06:43 UTC.
All of Crypto APIs products and services are operating flawlessly and we are not experiencing any issues or downtime.
Our team has validated the seamless synchronization of data for all of our API endpoints and the Merge is not expected to impact your daily operations.
We continue monitoring the network performance and we will update you if necessary.

The Ethereum Merge to proof-of-stake ("PoS") is just around the corner.
We have upgraded our Ethereum nodes to the latest Bellatrix upgrade in advance to ensure the smooth operations of our customers. You don’t need to do anything on your end and no issues or downtime are expected.
Bellatrix is a consensus layer upgrade that is set to occur when the Beacon Chain reaches an epoch height of 144,896, around 11:34:47am on September 6, 2022 (UTC).
Another upgrade on the execution layer, Paris, will be triggered by a specific Total Difficulty threshold called the Terminal Total Difficulty (TTD) with a value of 58750000000000000000000, expected around September 15, 2022 (UTC).
This will mark the official Merge and Ethereum’s transition from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake.
Stay tuned for more updates on the Merge and our product suite.
