The long-anticipated launch of Berachain, the proof-of-liquidity blockchain that’s claimed to be identical to the Ethereum Virtual Machine to boost compatibility with existing tools and protocols, will take place on Thursday, February 6.
The network, which had teased a “Q5” launch since late 2024, will host its token generation event or TGE on the same day, with an airdrop eligibility checker to come on Wednesday.
Berachain's mainnet will launch on February 6th, 2025. Welcome to Q5.

The launch comes after the completion of its pre-launch vaults and Boyco program—liquidity bootstrapping initiatives designed to help applications and protocols that will launch alongside mainnet while allowing community members to stack rewards early. <...>
