According to official information - the new-generation public chain Berachain has released the "PoL v2: Electric Boogaloo – Balancing the Bera Book" proposal, planning to upgrade its core incentive mechanism Proof of Liquidity (PoL), opening a protocol-native revenue path for BERA token holders and further enhancing its token demand and long-term value capture capabilities.
This upgrade will redirect 33% of PoL incentives from the original allocation to BGT Boosters to a brand new BERA revenue module, allowing BERA holders (including CEX and on-chain users) to stake and obtain protocol-layer revenue with a single click without relying on third-party dApps. The new module introduces a 7-day unbonding period to encourage long-term holding, reduce arbitrage pressure, and plans to support future BERA LST revenue stacking, thereby enhancing network security.
The official emphasized that PoL v2 will not interfere with the existing BGT ecosystem, with BGT still serving as the core incentive tool for validators and dApps, and the original PoL incentive logic and allocation mechanism remaining stable.
Core highlights include:
● Introducing a protocol-native revenue channel for BERA, initiating a transition from "trading asset" to "yield asset"
● Using a Buyback+profit-sharing mechanism to transform BERA from low-efficiency to one of the most profitable tokens among mainstream L1s
● Maintaining the BGT incentive system's stability, ensuring the long-term sustainability of the application ecosystem and validator network
● Enhancing attractiveness from a traditional investor perspective: Berachain is systematically allocating resources to the development of multiple product lines (various applications), with more DeFi protocols launched by Berachain soon to go online, including the first batch of lending and Honey collateral expansion
● Building a truly sustainable "protocol-owned revenue" pathway, releasing BERA's potential as a system-level value capture engine
The proposal will be open for community feedback from July 14 to 20, and after completing governance voting on July 21, it will be launched on the mainnet if approved. Berachain also revealed that it will explore future paths such as accessing reward vaults by staking BERA, providing directional incentives to core dApps, and standardizing asset incentives to further enhance the protocol's token value capture capabilities.
The official calls on the community to actively participate in forum discussions before July 20, provide feedback and suggestions, and collectively build the final design of PoL v2.
