Meanwhile, as a rebalancing token, STONE can be used in multiple use case, including DeFi (swapping, lending, leveraging, etc), AI, RWA and other multiple use cases
- For STONE’s redemption, users can choose instant withdrawal and request withdrawal, and STONE has been smoothly processing withdrawals since the protocol launch. Meanwhile, STONE is working with Native, an on-chain PMM solution to better facilitate STONE’s omnichain redemption, which helps keep STONE’s peg stable even under very volatile market conditions. (See more details in: On-chain Liquidity Provision: From Total Value Locked(TVL) to Total Available Liquidity(TAL) - Google Docs)

5. Token / Project Background / Incentive Token Whitelist
Only two tokens can be whitelisted for use as incentives in a Reward Vault. Indicate which tokens will be used and provide all relevant information below.
Required Data for Incentive Token:
- Name:
BERA
- Symbol:
BERA
Additional Requirements:
- Specify how many tokens per week you plan to allocate for incentives
- Specify for how many weeks you plan to allocate incentives:
We plan to carefully utilize the allocation of RFA for long-term, health incentives, which covers two phases: 1/ Boyco Stage and 2/ Post Boyco stage
- Outline how decisions about token incentives are made (DAO, multi-sig, etc.):
We plan to utilize BERA as incentives over an extended period to ensure sustained engagement and long-term growth, and create flywheels for LPs and the protocol. At the initial stage, the team will primarily make decisions to kickstart the flywheel and ensure risk-adjusted rewards for LPs. Over time, the decision-making process will gradually transition to a more decentralized governance model.
- 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):
0x75Ff9163776e9342Df5f4116Acb321Dcc7931e9B
Required Data for Incentive Token:
- Name:
WETH
- Symbol:
WETH
Additional Requirements:
We are discovering the potentials of using the part of the staking rewards (in the form of WETH) as bribes to build stronger engagement with PoL as well as flywheels
6. Growth, Community & Ecosystem Impact
Why This Contract Matters:
- How will this contract benefit Berachain?
STONE-ETH and other STONE-related pools continue to attract yield-bearing ETH liquidity into the Berachain ecosystem, enhancing the usability of these assets. The deep liquidity also unlocks greater potential for strategies built on top of yield-bearing assets as they gradually integrate with Berachain ecosystem protocols.
- Will it deepen liquidity for a major ecosystem token (e.g., BERA, core stable asset)?
STONE enhances capital efficiency for liquidity pools paired with major ecosystem tokens. Establishing the flywheel through PoL for STONE assets creates a stronger foundation for incentivizing liquidity in other key ecosystem token pools.
- Does it enable important trading pairs that drive adoption or integrate with other Berachain projects?
Deep liquidity is essential for seamless integration into Berachain ecosystem protocols, enabling instant withdrawals and liquidations. This liquidity significantly enhances asset usability across the ecosystem.
Potential Volume / TVL:
- Provide metrics or estimates on liquidity you expect to attract.
- The goal is to establish STONE’s primary liquidity source on Berachain to support omnichain swapping demand and price discovery. Currently, the STONE-ETH pool is one of the largest in the Berachain ecosystem, and we are committed to leveraging PoL and other incentive mechanisms to sustain and further attract liquidity to the pool.
- Since StakeStone collaborates with Native (an on-chain PMM Platform) for STONE’s omnichain instant liquidity, only a single, deep on-chain DEX pool is needed—allowing incentives and liquidity to be concentrated efficiently. By building and maintaining this pool on Berachain, we can continuously direct incentives and liquidity toward it. Additionally, as Market Makers rebalance STONE within this pool, it will naturally attract STONE trading volume from multiple chains to Berachain.
- Highlight any known liquidity commitments. (If you or partners plan to seed the contract, provide proof of funds or a statement of intent.)
- The plan is to support the pool with StakeStone’s PoL aligned vaults
Synergies with Other Protocols:
- Will this contract feed into any yield aggregators, lending markets, or liquid staking derivatives on Berachain?
- Deep liquidity for STONE enables seamless integration with nearly all DeFi protocols in the Berachain ecosystem, including Dolomite, Beraborrow, and others, while also unlocking greater PoL potential through their unique designs.
- Additionally, thanks to Kodiak’s island model, the LP token for this pool offers exceptional PoL compatibility, opening up new possibilities for innovative strategies.
Marketing / Promotion:
- Are there plans to co-market with another project to bootstrap liquidity?
- We are highly motivated and have solid plans to further amplify this pool’s potential in the broader market through press releases, Twitter promotions, and collaborations with key opinion leaders (KOLs).
- Additionally, through our network, we will actively promote this and other StakeStone-related opportunities to institutional partners and liquidity providers (LPs).
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.)
- Our long-term vision is to establish this pool as the sole on-chain DEX liquidity source for STONE, attracting more liquidity and yield opportunities to Berachain while consolidating STONE’s trading volume across multiple chains.
- At the same time, we are committed to developing PoL-aligned strategies for this pool and other ETH-related pools on Berachain through our strategy vaults.
