Required Data for Incentive Tokens:

Incentive Token #1

  • Symbol: wBERA

Additional Requirements:

Specify how many tokens per week you plan to allocate for incentives

Specify for how many weeks you plan to allocate incentives

For as long as the Auto-BGT mechanism is turned on and is efficient.

Outline how decisions about token incentives are made (DAO, multi-sig, etc.).

Multisig

Incentive Manager address (this address will manage the incentive token, being able to add incentive tokens to the reward vault and change the incentive rate)

6. Growth, Community & Ecosystem Impact

Why This Contract Matters:

How will this contract benefit Berachain?

The WBERA-USDC.e pool strengthens Berachain’s DeFi infrastructure by deepening liquidity for two major assets (WBERA and USDC.e). Learn more here: Charm is coming to Berachain ! — Charm Finance

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

Yes, BERA and USDC.e.

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

Yes, integrated with Charm finance and will be focused on being highly capital efficient and high volume.

Potential Volume / TVL:

Provide metrics or estimates on liquidity you expect to attract.

$2m+ in TVL

Highlight any known liquidity commitments. (If you or partners plan to seed the contract, provide proof of funds or a statement of intent.)

Min. $100k+ from partners and treasury.

Synergies with Other Protocols:

Will this contract feed into any yield aggregators, lending markets, or liquid staking derivatives on Berachain?

Yes.

Marketing / Promotion:

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

Yes.

Long-Term Vision:

How could this reward vault evolve over time? (E.g., eventually becoming a core liquidity pair or a major stable pool for the chain.)

This will serve as a natural complement to the flagship WBERA-HONEY Kodiak Island and will serve as highly capital efficient, high volume, option.

7. Verification

Post on X:

Hi team, at the time of review, the following concern was identified:

• At the time of review, Charm FE had not deployed on Berachain as of July 4th as stated in the proposal. As a result, we were unable to verify the TVL.

Please note that the following feedback doesn’t represent the opinions of the BGT Foundation. It is contextual feedback from the Bera ecosystem team with respect to publicly stated guidelines.

With the following clarification and updated information, this application should be a better candidate for a Reward Vault.

Hello BeraLabs team.

Apologies, there was a small delay with Charm’s frontend deployment.

It is now live at this link: https://app.charm.fi/berachain/vault/0x38920562047280f2f95b7aba7a9eaa8d0ae04a5c. It will be marketed to users directly from Kodiak’s frontend as well as through Charm’s website.

At this time the pool is seeded with >$100k, it can be verified at the bottom of the page (screenshot attached).
