Request for Proposals: Development of Real-Time Data and Analytics Product for Reward Vault Monitoring
Date: July 30, 2025
Issued by: BGT Foundation
On behalf of the Governance Guardians
Dear Prospective Teams and Developers,
The BGT Foundation, in alignment with our mission to foster the growth and stability of the Berachain ecosystem through Proof of Liquidity (PoL), is pleased to invite expressions of interest and formal proposals for the development of an open source data and analytics product. This initiative aims to empower our community by providing real-time monitoring and tracking of Reward Vaults, ensuring transparency, efficiency, and enhanced decision-making for BGT holders and participants in the PoL framework.
As stewards of the BGT token and its governance, we have consistently prioritized innovation that drives value accretion, mitigates risks, and strengthens community engagement—principles echoed in our recent announcements on the BGT Foundation Council and Reward for Reward Vaults (RFRVs). We seek partners who share our commitment to these values and can deliver a robust solution that integrates seamlessly with the Berachain protocol.
Background
Berachain is a high-performance, EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain powered by Proof of Liquidity, where liquidity providers are rewarded through mechanisms like Reward Vaults. These vaults distribute BGT emissions to incentivize deep liquidity and protocol stability. However, to optimize participation and governance, there is a need for advanced tools that offer real-time insights into vault performance, emissions, user interactions, and overall ecosystem health. This product will build on our existing infrastructure, complementing tools like BeaconKit and community-driven initiatives.
Scope of Work
The selected team will design, develop, and deploy a data and analytics platform with the following core features:
-
Real-Time Monitoring: Live tracking of Reward Vault metrics, including BGT emissions, liquidity inflows/outflows, vault balances, and participation rates.
-
Analytics Dashboards: Interactive visualizations, historical trend analysis, predictive modeling for vault performance, and customizable alerts defined by Governance Council
-
Integration Capabilities: Seamless API connections to Berachain nodes, compatibility with popular wallets and DeFi tools, and support for multi-chain data if relevant.
-
Security and Compliance: Robust data privacy measures, audit-ready smart contracts (if applicable), and adherence to best practices in blockchain security.
-
User-Friendly Interface: Intuitive UI/UX tailored for both technical users and the broader Berachain community, with options for mobile responsiveness.
The project should emphasize scalability, 100% open-source, and alignment with PoL goals to drive real time insights.
Requirements for Proposals
Proposals should include:
-
Team Profile: Overview of the team’s experience in blockchain development, data analytics, and DeFi products. Highlight relevant projects, particularly those involving Cosmos SDK, EVM, or similar ecosystems. Include bios of key members and any affiliations with Berachain contributors.
-
Technical Approach: Detailed methodology, technology stack (e.g., indexing tools like Subgraph or Dune Analytics equivalents, frontend frameworks), and a high-level architecture diagram.
-
Timeline and Milestones: Proposed project phases, from ideation to launch, with estimated durations (target: 1-2 months for MVP).
-
Budget and Resources: Itemized cost breakdown, including development, testing, deployment, and ongoing maintenance. Indicate any grant or funding expectations.
-
Risk Assessment and Mitigation: Identification of potential challenges (e.g., data latency, chain upgrades) and strategies to address them.
-
Innovation and Alignment: How the product will contribute to Berachain’s culture of community-driven innovation and PoL enhancement.
We encourage proposals that incorporate creative elements, such as gamification or AI-driven insights, while maintaining a focus on reliability and user empowerment.
