Countdown Lock: On July 7, 2026, Berachain will officially launch the PoL Next upgrade. $BGT will be deprecated, and tokenomics will undergo a structural reshaping.
From an individual perspective, this upgrade is not just a routine version iteration, but Berachain’s self-driven revolution of its third-generation three-token model. With BGT—serving as the core intermediary for governance and incentives—being deprecated, the Proof of Liquidity (PoL) mechanism will move toward a more direct and more efficient value-capture pathway: rewards will be tied to real usage, reducing inflation dilution caused by intermediary layers.
Three signals worth watching:
1. Users holding BGT should pay attention to any redemption or migration window in advance to avoid ending up in an awkward position with their assets after the upgrade;
2. Incentive models across ecosystem projects may be adjusted in parallel, and the yield curve will be repriced;
3. The market narrative around “token simplification” often first suppresses and then lifts—short-term selling pressure and long-term valuation repair may coexist.
There is still time before the upgrade, but liquidity never waits. It’s recommended to research the official migration plan in advance and turn uncertainty into an actionable checklist, rather than deadline anxiety.
