Quicknode is proud to be the early access provider for one of DeFi’s most anticipated launches of 2025. With over 250 integrated projects and 100+ launching in week one, Berachain’s Mainnet launch marks a pivotal moment in DeFi evolution. Berachain promises a transformative environment for decentralized finance that brings a novel consensus model, a two-token Proof-of-Liquidity (PoL) model, and unparalleled liquidity opportunities to developers and users alike.

What Makes Berachain Unique?

1. Proof-of-Liquidity Consensus (PoL)

Berachain introduces a Proof-of-Liquidity consensus mechanism that incentivizes participants to deposit liquidity into the network’s applications. This model grows security and liquidity in lockstep, enabling Berachain to maintain deep liquidity while rewarding those who make their capital productive for the ecosystem.

• Supercharging applications (PoL) fundamentally transform how applications can bootstrap and scale their liquidity by allowing them to tap into chain-level incentives. aligning the interests of long-term stakeholders.

• Enhanced Capital Efficiency: Assets locked in the network aren’t just sitting idle; they become a productive part of the chain’s economic model.

2. Two-token Proof-of-Liquidity (PoL) model

Unlike traditional single-n ecosystems, Berachain operates with two core tokens that work in harmony to power the network:

• BERA: The native utility token used for transaction fees, staking rewards, and fueling smart contracts.

• BGT: The governance token grants holders the ability to vote on protocol upgrades and network parameters.

This two-token design creates a balanced economic model where governance, utility, and stability each play a distinct role in driving the network forward.

3. EVM Architecture

Berachain was built from the ground up as a general-purpose chain. Its EVM compatibility ensures that Ethereum-based projects can migrate or deploy with minimal friction. At the same time, the chain’s focus on liquidity and capital efficiency makes it an ideal environment for financial apps.

• Deep Liquidity: PoL incentivizes the locking of assets, creating vibrant liquidity pools for DeFi protocols.

• EVM-identical: Ethereum-compatible smart contracts allow developers to easily deploy existing code or create new dApps with familiar tooling.

• NFT and Gaming: Beyond DeFi, Berachain’s scalable architecture also opens up possibilities for NFT ecosystems and blockchain gaming.

4. Scalable and Interoperable

Engineered as an EVM-identical blockchain, Berachain leverages Ethereum Virtual Machine compatibility for seamless integration with Ethereum and other EVM-based networks. This means:

• Future-Proof: As blockchain ecosystems grow, Berachain’s interoperability ensures it remains at the forefront of multi-chain DeFi.
