Berachain is an EVM‑compatible Layer‑1 built with the Cosmos SDK that introduces Proof‑of‑Liquidity (PoL), rewarding validators based on the liquidity they provide rather than just stake weight. Its tri‑token model splits governance (BGT), block rewards (BERA) and stable value (HONEY) to align incentives between traders and stakers. The chain launched public testnet #3 ‘Berenodes’ in February 2025 and plans mainnet with native USDC support later in the year.
Hedera Hashgraph uses a gossip‑about‑gossip DAG protocol that achieves asynchronous Byzantine fault tolerance and finality in 3‑5 seconds. Governing Council members like Google and IBM run permissioned nodes, and the Hedera Token Service allows issuance without smart‑contract coding. The 2024 ‘Smart Contract 2.0’ release introduced Solidity bytecode support via Hyperledger Besu integration.
