This week’s RFRV approvals highlight new takes on validator alignment and cross-chain liquidity, all anchored in Berachain’s Proof-of-Liquidity design.

ApiologyDAO’s vault introduces a DAO-managed strategy that routes BGT emissions into fatBERA staking. The result is deeper validator backing, increased DAO treasury participation, and a self-reinforcing loop that turns emissions into compounding LST exposure. Kodiak rounds out the batch with a new SOL and HONEY vault, expanding Berachain’s cross-chain footprint and setting the stage for deeper Solana-native liquidity to flow in. The Honey Jar adds a vault for xfatBERA and BERA, compounding validator-aligned stake and reinforcing the broader LST economy.

Each of these vaults takes a different approach, but all move the chain forward by incentivizing new sources of volume, composability, and validator stake in ways that reinforce the ecosystem as a whole.

NON-BEX POOLS (DEX — Vault Proposer — Pair)

All requests for amendments to existing reward vaults were approved, with the Labs team coordinating with teams to swap out incentives or make necessary changes.
