6. Why This Contract Matters

How will this contract benefit Berachain?

This vault pairs HONEY, Berachain’s native stablecoin, with USDC.e bridged via Stargate, one of the most widely used stablecoins in crypto. It provides deep, efficient liquidity between Berachain-native and external stable assets, making it easier for users and protocols to move capital into and out of Berachain. This strengthens Berachain’s role as a competitive DeFi hub while enhancing user confidence in stablecoin trading and settlement.

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

Yes. HONEY is Berachain’s primary stablecoin and one of the ecosystem’s most important assets. Deeper HONEY liquidity against USDC.e ensures low-slippage access between local and external stablecoins, improving usability for traders, liquidity providers, and cross-chain capital flows.

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

Yes. The HONEY | USDC.e vault creates one of the most essential stablecoin trading pairs, enabling seamless bridging of liquidity between Berachain and other ecosystems. This strengthens integrations for protocols relying on HONEY, improves arbitrage efficiency, and provides users with reliable access to both native and external stables — a key driver for adoption of Berachain DeFi.

7. Synergies with Other Protocols

This vault connects Berachain’s native stablecoin (HONEY) with USDC.e, a bridged version of one of the most widely used stablecoins in DeFi, via Stargate. By doing so, it strengthens the on/off-chain liquidity bridge, enabling smoother capital inflows from external ecosystems while reinforcing HONEY’s role as the primary settlement asset within Berachain. This creates synergies for lending protocols, DEXs, and yield platforms that rely on deep, stable liquidity and improves overall price stability for stablecoins across the ecosystem.


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

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 appropriate updates, this application would be in a better position for Reward Vault consideration.

The current $100k USD minimum TVL is a real barrier to ecosystem growth

What are the current main reasons behind this? If validators don’t put boost on them, they won’t get any BGT from it
