The Berachain Foundation plans to “build, acquire, or partner” businesses that create value for the BERA token.
Layer 1 blockchain Berachain struggled in its opening year, but looking ahead to 2026, the team plans to bootstrap businesses that add value to the network’s native token, BERA.
BERA is up 40% to $0.80 since the team released its end-of-year update yesterday, which introduced the “Bera Builds Businesses” model, in which the Berachain Foundation plans to “build, acquire, or partner” applications that support the token via internal incubation, revenue-sharing, and equity structures.
While BERA holders are undoubtedly enjoying the bounce, the token has a long way to go before reclaiming any sort of uptrend. $BERA is down 94% from its all-time high of $8.6, set at launch in February 2025.
The team behind Berachain came under scrutiny in November 2025 when Unchained reported that Berachain granted Brevan Howard’s crypto arm refund rights on its $25 million investment.
Berachain’s team downplayed the events, claiming incomplete reporting, but BERA is down more than 20% since the report was published.
