Reward Vault Request for mBGT-iBERA 0.3% on Kodiak

This is an amendment to the original reward vault request (see here: Reward Vault Request for mBGT-iBERA on Kodiak). In this reward vault request, we will also be addressing concerns flagged in the original reward vault request.


Miso is a yield interface for Berachain-native, PoL-based yield strategies that are effortless, composable, and accessible to everyone, including users who are not familiar with DeFi. Miso is not just a liquid staking protocol; mBGT is a core asset and a foundational piece that facilitates attractive yield generation for other blue-chip assets on Berachain.

6. Growth, Community & Ecosystem Impact

Why This Contract Matters:

  • How will this contract benefit Berachain?

The mBGT-iBERA pool is the canonical liquidity venue for mBGT, the liquid derivative of BGT created by Miso. It is the primary on-chain market for users to buy, sell, or enter BGT-based yield strategies in a composable and liquid form. This pool is critical to making BGT yield accessible, tradable, and usable across the Berachain DeFi stack.

Miso is making Berachain-native, PoL-based yield simple and accessible to everyone, including users beyond the Berachain ecosystem; mBGT is a fundamental asset that allows us to create efficient BGT-based yield strategies.

  • Will it deepen liquidity for a major ecosystem token (e.g., BERA, core stable asset)?

Yes. iBERA is an increasingly important core asset in Berachain. This pool deepens iBERA’s utility by pairing it with mBGT, enabling users to possibly rotate between BGT yield and iBERA-based DeFi strategies with minimal slippage.

  • Does it enable important trading pairs that drive adoption or integrate with other Berachain projects?

Most certainly. Miso aims to abstract away the complexities and manual processes of participating in Proof of Liquidity, for a rewarding and user-friendly experience. For users without significant experience participating in DeFi, Miso will be a valuable venue to discover and participate in PoL-based yield. This directly translates to an increase in on-chain TVL. Miso will also explore meta-governance strategies in collaborating with other LST projects on Berachain.

Potential Volume / TVL:

  • Provide metrics or estimates on liquidity you expect to attract.

Within the first three months, we aim to push out yield products that enable delta-neutral and impermanent loss-neutral asset exposure to BGT, BERA, and USD. We are making a particularly active push with app partners beyond Berachain to attract TVL (TVL will reside on Berachain since that’s where the yield is). We expect to attract $10-15M in TVL in the first three months.

  • Highlight any known liquidity commitments. (If you or partners plan to seed the contract, provide proof of funds or a statement of intent.)

Miso will be seeding the pool with $100k+

Synergies with Other Protocols:

  • Will this contract feed into any yield aggregators, lending markets, or liquid staking derivatives on Berachain?

Yield products: When users stake mBGT, they receive smBGT, a liquid, yield-bearing token. smBGT can be used as a productive collateral in lending markets and yield strategies.

Marketing / Promotion:

  • Are there plans to co-market with another project to bootstrap liquidity? Yes, with Infrared, Kodiak, and furthermore.app

Long-Term Vision:

  • How could this reward vault evolve over time? (E.g., eventually becoming a core liquidity pair or a major stable pool for the chain.)

This pool will serve as the primary liquidity hub for all mBGT on Berachain. As Miso rolls out other yield vaults, mBGT is a core asset that facilitates the reward harvesting for all future PoL-based yield vaults.

Planned shutdown for MIso app, mBGT, and the mBGT-iBERA reward vault

Summary

This post formally notifies the Berachain ecosystem of the planned shutdown of Miso (miso.money) which entered into redemption-only mode, and the mBGT-iBERA reward vault.

After extensive exploration of multiple sustainability paths, Miso did not reach product-market fit and is unable to continue operating in an economically viable manner. A controlled and transparent shutdown process is therefore being executed with user fund safety as the highest priority.

Miso was built to improve accessibility and user experience for BGT participants within Berachain’s Proof of Liquidity economy. While the original intent and technical execution were sound, sustained user demand and economic viability were not achieved.

We’d like to formally thank the Berachain Foundation for its early support, as well as our partners Kodiak and Infrared, whose collaboration made Miso possible.

Details

Miso has entered redemption-only mode with the following arrangements:

  • Redemption opened: January 26, 2026, 11:00 UTC
  • Minting and staking: Permanently disabled
  • Redemption path: mBGT → BERA at 1:1, available at Miso dApp (https://app.miso.money)
  • smBGT must be unstaked to mBGT prior to redemption
  • Redemption window: 90 days

No new protocol activity will occur beyond redemptions. After the 90-day period, contracts will be paused to prevent further interactions. Any remaining unclaimed balances will remain claimable through a manual recovery process to be announced if required.

The following actions have been taken to fully unwind protocol incentives and liquidity:

  • Protocol-owned liquidity in the mBGT-iBERA liquidity pool will be fully withdrawn by January 26, 2026, 13:00 UTC
  • Liquidity providers should independently withdraw liquidity from the respective Kodiak island
  • The mBGT-iBERA reward vault is now inactive: no further incentives will be added to this reward vault, no further rewards will accrue. Users should withdraw LP tokens from the vault if applicable.

The shutdown of Miso is deeply regrettable, but the process in which this is executed is exercised in thoughtful deliberation to prevent any further major disruption and volatility, ensure orderly exits, and maintain trust with users and ecosystem stakeholders.

We appreciate the Berachain Foundation’s support and guidance throughout Miso’s lifecycle, and we thank the community for their feedback, experimentation, and participation.

Any edge cases arising from legacy staking positions will be handled on a best-effort basis by the Miso team during the wind-down period. For any issues related to redemption or contract interactions during the wind-down period, users may refer directly to the Miso application while it remains live.
