What is Berachain?

BeraChain is a layer 1 platform compatible with EVM ( Ethereum Virtual Machine ) and DeFi centralized. It will be a high-performance, scalable, EVM compatible, and cross-chain interoperability smart contract platform.

Berachain is currently deployed on Cosmos-SDK and uses its native consensus mechanism Tendermint.

Instead of building from scratch, Berachain is leveraging existing middleware and third-party projects to build on.

Tendermint is a trusted, high-performance consensus mechanism, and most importantly, the most secure implementation of the Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) consensus. As of today, over $150 billion in on-chain secured assets are based on Tendermint and it is one of the most tested and production-ready consensus frameworks on the market.

Proof-of-Liquidity

Proof-of-Liquidity is a term created by the development team of Berachain. It allows users to stake assets such as ETH, BTC and stablecoins for the validator.

Staking is done in the protocol's native token. The Cosmos system makes it easier to build a “communication center” (tokens from different chains that trade with each other) for multiple blockchains. If you have ever used THORChain , you will understand.

Berachain's Proof-of-Liquidity allows users to stake from a range of tokens and then delegate those staked tokens to the validator to participate in DPoS.

On Berachain, it is not necessary to stake the protocol's native token. All you have to do is have some liquidity.

The weight and priority will go to the more prominent tokens first, like BTC, ETH, and USDC.

Original Token of Berachain

Before we go any further, here are the native tokens of Berachain.

• BERA – gas token of Berachain
• HONEY – the original stablecoin of Berachain
• BGT – governance token of Berachain

More details on Berachain's tokenomics are still being developed in the project's litepaper.

What happens after staking assets in Berachain?

As you may already know, staking tokens into the platform helps to secure the protocol.

In Berachain, staked assets are deposited into vaults and used for profit. This is possible through the LP token in the Berachain DEX, which provides a lending market, helping to stabilize the peg for the native stablecoin HONEY….

You can also use your staked assets for many of the things you would expect in the DeFi protocol. Example: You can use your staked assets as collateral to mint HONEY, then you can use them in other ways:

• To pair with other coins for native DEX. Same with RUNE. I E. HONEY-OTHER_COIN
• Derivatives trading
• AMO (Algorithmic Market Operations Controller). Similar to Frax, this will help hold the peg in other ways than buying and selling
