Berachain started as a meme, has a strong community cultural consensus, focuses on liquidity and NFT narratives, and is closely related to the early DeFi project OlympusDAO. Specifically, Berachain is an NFT projectBong BearsAn idea from the community, supported by OlympusDAO and its investors, and inspired by OlympusDAOs rebasing to rebase a new collectionBond Bears、Boo Bears、Baby Bears、Band BearsandBit Bears。
In terms of team composition, Berachain is composed of 30 anonymous members including Homme Bera, Dev Bear, Papa Bear and Smokey the Bera, as well as the former engineering director of Mysten Labs in January this yearBaloo the Bera Join Berachain。
Berachain began financing after the FTX thunderstorm in November 2022, and completed US$42 million in financing at a valuation of US$420 million in April 2023. Polychain Capital led the investment, OKX Ventures, Hack VC, Dao 5, Tribe Capital, Shima Capital, Robot Ventures , Goldentree Asset Management, former partner of Dragonfly Capital, Mustafa Al-Bassam, founder of Celestia, Zaki Manian, co-founder of Tendermint, and 20 other DeFi project founders participated in the investment. When the financing news was announced, the Berachain ecosystem had committed more than $250 million in total locked value.
In January this year, Berachain stated that more than 30 native teams were building on Berachain, and more than 100 teams from other networks planned to deploy on the testnet and mainnet, including Pendle, Redacted, Sudoswap, Abracadabra, etc. According to The Honey Jar community BD Umeshu, Berachain in January 2024There are more than 70 ecological projects in total. Recently, Berachain has also cooperated with cross-chain interoperability protocol LayerZero and NFT project Pudgy Penguin.
Benefiting from the strong community cultural consensus, Berachain, which is in the Artio test network stage, is also extremely popular. The faucet once dropped from 1 BERA to 0.1 BERA. Problems such as network congestion, queuing, slow payment, and low allocation have all troubled users. Berachain will be launched on the mainnet in the second quarter. Before that, participating in the testnet and ecological interaction is the only way. At the same time, the current tutorials on Berachain testnet interaction across the entire network are too vertical and single, failing to cover the Berachain ecosystem and community horizontally. In view of this, Foresight News will make a brief summary of Beras approach to water and its in-depth participation in the Bera ecosystem for the benefit of readers.
Galxe Points Mission

Regarding the acquisition of cub characters, Smokey the Bera also has something to say. In short, Just do good deeds and dont worry about the future:

Get test coins
BERA Facuet is currently the only entrance to participate in Berachain test network interaction. Previously, the OTC price was 4 RMB/BERA. Now the BERA faucet issuance has been reduced from 1 every 8 hours to 0.1. It is estimated that the OTC price of BERA test coins will be higher. expensive. The risk of trading OTC test coins is that you might be considered a witch.
On February 18, 1 BERA = $579 on the Berachain testnet.
