Berachain Releases 2025 Year-End Summary: Focusing on PoL and "Bera Builds Businesses" Strategy to Drive Value Back to BERA

Odaily News Berachain has released its 2025 year-end summary, detailing annual progress and outlining plans for 2026. Data shows that over 25 million BERA were staked for Proof-of-Liquidity (PoL) throughout the year, with over $30 million in PoL revenue distributed to BGT/BERA holders. PoL-supported TVL exceeded $250 million, and the on-chain stablecoin scale surpassed $100 million. The team emphasized a shift towards reducing reliance on market sentiment and third parties, with the core objective being the long-term enhancement of BERA's value.

Strategically, Berachain introduced "Bera Builds Businesses," aiming to focus on 3-5 high-certainty applications through internal incubation, mergers & acquisitions, or deep partnerships. This initiative, combined with PoL incentives and product/engineering resources, is designed to directly generate demand for BERA and HONEY. Goals include achieving emission neutrality, protocol profitability, and utilizing profits for reinvestment or buybacks. Recent progress includes the launch of the native money market BEND, HONEY collateral's contribution to annualized revenue, listings of ecosystem projects on multiple exchanges, and full recovery of user funds.

The team also disclosed challenges: price and sentiment pressure, attrition of some projects, adjustments in marketing focus, and the departure of certain core members. Looking ahead to 2026, Berachain will prioritize partners with genuine revenue streams and non-pure-crypto dependencies to drive network effects and value recirculation.
