About Berachain
Berachain is an EVM-identical Layer 1 (L1) blockchain aligning liquidity and security at the network level. Unlike most blockchains that rely solely on traditional staking for network security, Berachain’s novel Proof of Liquidity (PoL) consensus mechanism rewards users who actively contribute resources with the network’s native governance token, $BGT. Where traditional chains rely on staking rewards or dApps alone to distribute incentives, PoL enables users to earn directly from the network for contributing liquidity or performing incentivized actions—transforming the chain's inflation into fuel for its applications and their users. This model aligns incentives with users who support the network over the long term, creating a sustainable ecosystem where the network's growth and liquidity reinforce each other while increasing its security. What started as an NFT project has evolved into a full-fledged blockchain ecosystem. Backed by a grassroots army of left and right curvers, Berachain accelerates dApp and protocol growth through a better, more aligned L1 model.
