Summary

The Berachain team has proposed PoL v2, reallocating 33% of existing PoL incentives to a new rewards module for BERA token holders. This initiative allows holders to earn rewards directly through the protocol without third-party tools. Additionally, a liquidity staking token (LST) feature will enable simultaneous rewards from validator nodes and PoL, enhancing network security. Community voting is scheduled for July 21, with a potential mainnet launch on the same day.

Terms & Concepts
  • PoL rewards: Rewards distributed within the Berachain protocol, originally designated for the BGT token.
  • liquid staking token (LST): A mechanism allowing users to earn rewards from both validator nodes and PoL simultaneously, enhancing network security.
  • mainnet: The primary network where the Berachain protocol operates, following the successful implementation of proposals.
