Growth, Community & Ecosystem Impact

How will this pool benefit Berachain and BEX?: Infrared being the largest protocol on Berachain, launching its native token will have a pivotal role in the ecosystem growth. From value accrual to ecosystem integrations. The core utility of the token taps into the Proof of liquidity itself and reinforces that flywheel.

Will it deepen liquidity for a major ecosystem token (e.g., BERA, core stable asset)?: Yes

Does it enable important trading pairs that drive adoption or integrate with other Berachain projects?: Yes

Provide metrics or estimates on liquidity you expect to attract.: Pool will be supporting Day 1 liquidity. Moreover, Infrared Finance will further incentivise the liquidity providers by enabling Infrared Vaults, with potential additional incentives on day 1.

Highlight any known liquidity commitments.: Team will aim to provision up to 150k USD worth of liquidity on day 1

Will this pool feed into any yield aggregators, lending markets, or liquid staking derivatives on Berachain?: As mentioned above the initial commitment comes from the Infrared Finance Team by providing PoL vaults for the mentioned assets on day 1. The plan is to integrate with multiple DEXes and lending protocols in the weeks post TGE to expand utility (all these conversations are in place already).

Are there plans to co-market with another project to bootstrap liquidity?: Kodiak

How could this reward vault evolve over time?: Native Infrared Finance protocol boosted incentives on this pool will increase over time. As the number one protocol by TVL on Berachain, Infrared Finance has strong connections & ever evolving plans with the ecosystem partners. Furthermore, IR being one of the key protocol native assets on the chain, deep liquidity and incentivisation to do so is essential for the future.

As part of the community, I would like (not in any way ask/request) to implement IR-BERA RV first, and then review IR-HONEY after some time, as this would be best for increased demand for BERA.
