Berachain is continuously expanding the boundaries of PoL, allowing more users and projects to participate in a more flexible manner.
The next updates include:
1⃣ Hub user interface upgrade to further enhance usability for non-DeFi native users.
2⃣ Launch of PoL templates to extend application scenarios to non-passive liquidity areas, such as trading volume incentives, leaderboard/VIP system integration, and new mechanisms focused on distribution.
After the POL upgrade, it will be possible to customize the reward cycle, allowing treasury managers to set a BGT release cycle of 3-7 days, balancing APR speed and stability.
Key Concepts
- Reward Cycle: The time period for linear release of BGT (3-7 days).
- Rolling Window: The rolling cycle from BGT generation to full allocation.
- Ramp-Up Period: The time required for BGT rewards to ramp up to full distribution.
Strategic Goals
- Reduce Token Volatility: Stabilize APR to prevent user losses due to drastic fluctuations.
- Flexible Adjustment: Rapid launch in the initial phase, maintaining long-term stability in the later phase.
Operational Recommendations
■ Cycle Settings:
- Initial Phase (0% APR): 3-day cycle (rapid launch).
- Gradual Transition: Extend by 1 day every 24 hours, ultimately reaching a 7-day cycle (stable APR).
■ Bribery Strategy:
- Frequency: Supplement bribery every 3 days or shorter to maintain stable APR.
- Token Combination: Mix BERA (60-80%) + Stablecoins (10-20%) + Volatile Tokens (10-20%) to hedge risks and sprint for high rates.
- Amount: Cover at least 2-3 hours to avoid validator attrition.
■ Validator Attraction:
- Short-Term Sprint: Use a small amount of volatile tokens to temporarily raise rates, then drop back after entering the top 4.
- Long-Term Stability: Maintain rate sustainability to avoid excessive depletion of funds.
Precautions
- Reject Blind High APR: 500% APR depletes funds without long-term value.
- Prioritize Stability: Volatility strategies may harm users; use with caution.
Summary: Achieve rapid launch and long-term stability of APR through a gradual cycle from 3 days to 7 days + high-frequency small bribery + three-token combination, maximizing fund efficiency.
