Introduction

We’re thrilled to announce our partnership with Berachain, a Layer 1 blockchain leveraging the novel Proof of Liquidity consensus mechanism. Together, Luganodes and Berachain are shaping the future of decentralized security by harnessing liquidity as the foundation for blockchain scalability, decentralization, and efficiency.

What Makes Berachain Unique?

Berachain introduces Proof of Liquidity (PoL), a unique consensus mechanism designed to address the shortcomings of traditional Proof of Stake (PoS) systems. Unlike PoS, where tokens are staked and locked, PoL leverages liquidity contributions to secure the network. This innovative approach incentivizes liquidity providers with Berachain Governance Tokens (BGT), ensuring active ecosystem participation while maintaining decentralization.

The Berachain Tri-Token System

Berachain’s economic design revolves around three distinct tokens:

• BERA (gas token): Powers transactions and smart contracts.

• BGT (governance token): Earned through liquidity provision and used to delegate validator stakes.

• HONEY (stablecoin): A USDC-pegged token stabilizing the ecosystem and enabling liquidity.

Polaris EVM: An Enhanced Ethereum Experience

Built on the Polaris EVM, Berachain provides an EVM-equivalent-plus experience, combining Ethereum compatibility with modular enhancements for faster and more efficient execution. Its CometBFT consensus ensures secure, Byzantine Fault Tolerant transactions, making Berachain an ideal environment for developers.

The Power of BEX (Berachain Exchange)

Berachain’s native exchange, BEX, enables permissionless pool creation and incentivized liquidity provision. Features like MetaPools and flexible pool types ensure deep liquidity, aligning validator incentives with ecosystem goals. By decoupling gas tokens (BERA) from governance tokens (BGT), Berachain ensures unmatched capital efficiency and liquidity-driven growth.

With its innovative architecture and a $1.5 billion valuation following significant funding from Brevan Howard Digital, Framework Ventures, and Polychain Capital, Berachain is set to redefine decentralized finance and blockchain security.

Luganodes X Berachain

As a trusted node operator for Berachain, Luganodes plays a pivotal role in supporting the network’s Proof of Liquidity model and ensuring its seamless operation.

By operating high-performance validator nodes, we maintain Berachain’s reliability and uptime, securing the network’s foundation. Additionally, we enable capital efficiency by allocating liquidity-backed governance tokens (BGT) effectively, enhancing shared security and network scalability.

Drawing from our extensive experience in securing staked assets across more than 50 networks, Luganodes brings a proven track record of operational excellence and infrastructure expertise. Through this partnership, we are proud to support Berachain’s mission to create a liquid, efficient, and decentralized blockchain network.

Conclusion

Luganodes and Berachain are pioneering a new era in blockchain infrastructure, where liquidity becomes the cornerstone of security, scalability, and decentralization. As Berachain launches its mainnet, we’re enabling a future where decentralized networks thrive through seamless innovation and robust economic alignment.
