The development history of cryptocurrencies is, to some extent, a history of the replacement of innovation waves. The ICO craze of 2017 was considered the peak of the industry's ambition, with the slogan "decentralize everything" - from payments to storage, from social to games, it seemed that everything could be reconstructed by blockchain. Seven years later, after the Meme coin frenzy in early 2024, the market has opened a new chase: AI-izing everything (AI Everything).
Among the many emerging public chains, Berachain, with its innovative Proof of Liquidity (PoL) consensus mechanism, is gradually becoming the focus of market attention. With the mainnet launch imminent, Berachain's pre-launch deposits have exceeded $1 billion, and as an application-first ecosystem, Berachain has already attracted over 200 teams to develop on the testnet. This article will explore 17 AI projects and 11 noteworthy projects in the Berachain ecosystem.
AI
3 Beras Capital ($3BC) is an innovative investment project based on the Berachain ecosystem, which organically combines AI, NFT and DAO through its unique 3BC Swarm Technology.

The project has received strategic investment from Binance Labs and a $2.5 million seed round led by Synergis, and through its native token $IRED and an innovative one-click PoL (Proof of Liquidity) staking system, it simplifies the process for users to participate in the Berachain ecosystem. The project is developing a validator network, PoL vaults, and the first native liquid staking token iBGT, aiming to redefine the liquid staking experience.
Yeet is an innovative on-chain game protocol-style DeFi project in the Berachain ecosystem, where the core gameplay involves players depositing $BERA (called "yeet") into a pool, and the last depositor can win 80% of the pool's rewards, with the remaining 20% randomly distributed to 10 players. Each deposit must be at least 0.5% of the current pool size and is subject to a 15% fee (9% goes to $YEET stakers, 5% to the protocol treasury, 1% to the public goods fund). The project also includes Yeet Bonds (discounted bonds for ecosystem projects), Yeet Vault (automated yield vault), and an NFT series called "Yeetards" (total supply of 5289). The $YEET token will be publicly offered on the Ramen Finance platform on the Berachain mainnet launch day, using a sealed-bid auction mechanism to sell 8% of the token supply, with an initial fully diluted valuation (FDV) of $12.5 million.
Ramen Finance is the native token launchpad protocol of the Berachain ecosystem, providing liquidity guidance services for new projects through its two core functions: selective launches and launch pools. The project uses a concentrated liquidity AMM mechanism and has launched an NFT project called "Hungry Bera".

The project has launched the "Founder's Sailcloth" NFT, and holders will have the privilege of early access to the game demo. The game emphasizes social interaction, allowing players to immerse themselves in this unique game world anytime, anywhere, and the project team has hinted at the possibility of an airdrop reward mechanism.
Beramonium Chronicles is an NFT RPG game project in the Berachain ecosystem, with the initial product being "Beramonium: Gemhunters". This is a placement-based RPG game where players can dispatch their Beramonium Genesis Bera NFTs to complete missions and acquire equipment and gems. The game innovatively adopts a PoL (Proof of Liquidity)-based game reward mechanism: by mining the protocol's native token BGT, players can earn rewards in the form of tokens such as $KDK, $iRED, $RAMEN, and $YEET, which are then repackaged as game rewards and offered to players in the form of different-sized token packages at the gem store. The project has been recognized by the RFA (possibly a funding program) and will receive $BERA token allocations to reward players. This model achieves a sustainable, non-PvP, and non-inflationary Play-to-Earn mechanism, and the rewards will increase as the game scales. Currently, according to OpenSea data, the floor price is 0.089 ETH.
Summary
The Berachain ecosystem is undergoing a critical transition from testnet to mainnet, successfully supporting 127 high-quality projects through the RFA program, fully embodying Berachain's "application-first" core philosophy. These projects cover areas such as DeFi, GameFi, and NFTs, collectively building a comprehensive blockchain ecosystem. Notably, the RFA program's fund allocation plan (70% for mainnet user rewards and liquidity incentives, 10-15% for testnet user retroactive rewards, and 15% for infrastructure building) demonstrates the project team's thoughtful consideration for the sustainable development of the ecosystem.
As the mainnet launch is approaching, Berachain is well-prepared, with its innovative PoL mechanism, robust infrastructure, and rich application ecosystem, to become the next-generation leading blockchain platform. For users seeking quality blockchain investment opportunities, delving into and participating in the Berachain ecosystem is undoubtedly a wise choice.
