Berachain is a modular Layer 1 blockchain with EVM support, utilizing a Proof-of-Liquidity consensus mechanism. This variant of “delegated” PoS allows users to stake tokens while simultaneously providing liquidity for projects on the network.

The platform implements a three-token model: BERA for gas payments, BGT for governance, and HONEY as a stablecoin, which prevents centralization and incentivizes on-chain activity.

In April, the project raised $100 million in a Series B round led by Framework Ventures. Other investors included Brevan Howard Digital, HashKey Capital, Tribe Capital, and Arrington XRP Capital. Berachain’s valuation exceeded $420 million.

Just over a year ago, developers launched the public testnet Artio.
