Berachain — take part in the testnet with an eye on the drop
Berachain is an EVM blockchain built on the Cosmos SDK and uses the Proof-of-Liquidity consensus. The latter was designed to address the problem of liquidity inflows.
The project has raised $42 million in investment from funds such as Polychain Capital, Shima Capital and others, at a valuation of $420.69 million.
Berachain-Artio’s test network was recently launched. And in this guide we will look at what activities we can do in the project with an eye on the drop.
