Essential Concepts
Before diving into Berachain, it’s essential to understand these key components:
- BERA: the network’s native gas token 
- BGT: staking and governance token, used to secure the network and earn rewards via PoL 
- iBGT: Infrared’s liquid governance token for $BGT (backed 1:1) 
- Boost a Validator: you can help direct $BGT emissions by boosting a validator with $BGT; this makes you eligible to claim any incentives 
- HONEY: Berachain’s native stablecoin (can be minted via the Beratown interface) 
- Proof of Liquidity (PoL): Berachain's economic mechanism that utilises network incentives to align the interests of ecosystem participants, bolstering both applications and chain security 
- Reward Vaults: enable protocol users to earn BGT and additional incentives
