Berachain (BERA)

What is Berachain?​

Berachain is a next-generation blockchain designed for high scalability and DeFi innovation. Built within the Cosmos ecosystem, it uses a novel consensus model to align liquidity with network security.

Here are 5 key points about Berachain:

Proof-of-Liquidity (PoL): Validators must stake liquidity provider (LP) tokens instead of only the native token, ensuring security and liquidity are deeply connected.

EVM compatibility: Developers can deploy Ethereum smart contracts without modification.

Cosmos SDK foundation: Provides fast, low-cost transactions and interoperability with other Cosmos chains through IBC.

DeFi focus: Optimised for liquidity provision, yield farming, and cross-chain DeFi use cases.

On-chain governance: BERA holders can vote on proposals and network changes.
