Berachain Governance Update: RFRV Batch 18 Approved

This week’s approved vaults extend PoL incentives across core staking assets, Bitcoin yield, and cross-protocol DeFi integrations. While each takes a different route, all three reinforce strategic parts of Berachain’s economy.

OpenState connects Berachain’s liquid staking and governance layers with a new osBGT/sWBERA vault, creating the first path for secondary market liquidity in staked BERA. On the BTC side, Solv returns with a new dual-BTC vault pairing solvBTC with solvBTC.BNB, advancing its goal of turning Berachain into the top destination for structured Bitcoin yield. Meanwhile, Pendle’s integration with Infrared opens up a new yield track for Berachain stakers, combining time-decaying assets with liquid governance tokens to expand strategy design space. 

NON-BEX POOLS (DEX — Vault Proposer — Pair)
• Kodiak — OpenState — osBGT/sWBERA
• Kodiak — Solv Protocol — solvBTC.BNB/solvBTC

NON-DEX VAULTS (Proposer — Utility)
• Infrared — Pendle LP-iBGT Vault

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