Validators in Proof-of-Liquidity (PoL)

Validators on Berachain secure the network, reach consensus, and earn rewards through gas fees and $BGT distribution. To become active, they stake $BERA tokens and, when selected to propose a block, direct $BGT rewards to chosen gauges, earning protocol-provided incentives.

Maximizing Delegation

Initially, validators lack $BGT delegation weight, preventing $BGT distribution to gauges. Validators must prove they can select profitable gauges to build delegation. This requires balancing risk and reward, collaborating with protocols, and managing costs effectively.

AquaBera's Role

AquaBera amplifies a protocol's fee generation, achieving 5-10X higher returns than traditional pools like Uniswap V2. By optimizing token emissions and incentivizing extractable liquidity, AquaBera reduces the cost of liquidity provision by 2-5X. Validators using AquaBera can offer superior rewards, attracting more $BGT delegation and maximizing their earnings.
