Orderly Integrates Berachain for Seamless Omnichain Liquidity

Permissionless liquidity layer Orderly has announced the integration of its omnichain infrastructure with Berachain.

Berachain, which launched its BERA token recently, is a Layer-1 (L1) blockchain powered by a novel Proof-of-Liquidity consensus mechanism.

Orderly Teams Up with Berachain to Enhance Cross-Chain Liquidity

Integrating with Berachain indicates Orderly’s move to support high-performance blockchains at an early stage. Notably, Orderly currently supports a broad range of Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and non-EVM chains, including Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, Mantle, and Solana.

The latest development builds on this synergy, pushing toward ensuring DeFi builders and traders can seamlessly access cross-chain liquidity. Specifically, decentralized exchanges (DEXes) and perpetual protocols within the Berachain ecosystem will access deep cross-chain liquidity.

It comes as Orderly boasts the backing of over 20 professional market makers, including Wintermute and Riverside. This backing signifies deep market depth and tight spreads to ensure an optimal trading experience for DeFi users.

“Berachain’s Proof-of-Liquidity model represents an evolution in blockchain consensus, directly aligning network security with DeFi liquidity. Integrating Orderly’s omnichain liquidity layer adds the final piece to the puzzle, empowering Berachain projects to rapidly go from zero to one. With endless liquidity and reliable trading infrastructure taken care of, Berachain builders are free to focus on creating awesome apps that users will love,” Orderly Co-Founder Ran Yi stated in a statement shared with BeInCrypto.

Meanwhile, the Berachain L1 blockchain has gained rapid traction since its recent launch, which was marked by the introduction of its native token, BERA, on Binance. The blockchain’s Proof-of-Liquidity (PoL) model incentivizes validators by linking network security with liquidity provisioning.

Through its integration with Orderly, projects on Berachain can now access Orderly’s omnichain order book. This means eliminating liquidity fragmentation and enhancing trading efficiency.

Berachain’s Post-Launch Success and Challenges

Since its launch, Berachain has surged in total value locked (TVL), crossing $3 billion and positioning itself as the sixth-largest blockchain in DeFi. Notably, it has surpassed Base layer-2 (L2), data on DefiLlama shows.

This rapid growth demonstrates a strong interest in the network’s novel consensus model and DeFi ecosystem. However, despite this success, Berachain has encountered challenges common to new blockchains, including price volatility and selling pressure.

Recent data suggests that BERA, the native token of Berachain, has faced increased sell-offs post-launch. Analysts point to liquidity concerns and profit-taking by early adopters after its recent crypto airdrop as key factors driving market fluctuations.

Additionally, controversy has surrounded Berachain’s co-founder, accused of dumping tokens and receiving a large airdrop. BeInCrypto reported that this raised concerns over fair token distribution and market manipulation.

Despite these issues, some analysts remain optimistic about Berachain’s long-term potential. BERA has rallied nearly 15% recently, with predictions that Berachain price could reach $9 if bullish momentum continues.
