Berachain airdrop odds are rising on Polymarket

Berachain, a popular Polychain-backed layer-1 network, is expected to launch its airdrop in 2024, according to most Polymarket users.

Berachain airdrop odds are rising

A Polymarket poll with over $669,000 in funds places the odds that Berachain will launch its token this year at 67%. This poll has been accurate before as users accurately predicted the recent Scroll (SCR) airdrop. They also predicted the confirmed Swell airdrop.

Another Polymarket poll with $55,528 places the probability of the Berachain airdrop happening this year at 72%, up from this month’s low of 42%.

Berachain is one of many upcoming layer-1 networks in the blockchain industry. It is also one of the best-funded platforms, having raised millions of dollars from well-known investors such as Polychain, Hack, Framework Ventures, and Brevan Howard Digital assets.

The network raised $42 million in April 2023, followed by another $100 million in March this year, giving it a unicorn status with a $1 billion valuation.

Berachain, which is focused on Decentralized Finance, has made a lot of progress since its last fundraising in March. It launched the public testnet bArtio B2 in June. It recently partnered with Binance, which integrated its testnet, raising the possibility that it will list the token when it goes public.

Berachain ecosystem is growing

Berachain has attracted several developers who have launched various projects on the network. For example, BEX is a platform for swapping tokens and providing liquidity, Honey is a platform for minting and redeeming Berachain’s native stablecoin, and Bend allows users to supply and borrow the $HONEY token.

Many mainstream networks have launched their airdrops this year. Wormhole (W), a leading bridging solution, launched its airdrop a few months ago, and has achieved a fully diluted valuation of $2.8 billion. ZKsync (ZK) has achieved an FDV of $2.6 billion, while EigenLayer is valued at $5.3 billion.

Berachain’s key challenge will be growing in a highly competitive market, where blockchains like Ethereum, Solana, Base, and Tron dominate. It will also compete with Injective, the DeFi-focused network backed by Mark Cuban, Binance, and Pantera.
