Hectic couple of days for myself and many in the Bera eco, many thanks to everyone who reached out with kind words
More importantly, weโve got one of the launches that Iโm quite excited about coming up shortly with @liquidroyaltyXโs tokenized royalty streams coming onchain for Black Friday.
Real world revenues living on Berachain, with many more to come. Onwards ๐ซก
Digital identity in the UK will not arrive as a universal system overnight. It will emerge domain by domain (finance, health, mobility) where trust, governance, and incentives align. The lesson from pets: identity is most powerful when it travels across contexts. Health, travel, and ownership data are separate silos until a trusted credential links them.
We scooped up TWO awards last night at @Entre_Conf awards, including female entrepreneur of the year, and couldnโt be more delighted. Weโre about to go public and this felt like a good luck omen.
@usepawpass is coming. On @berachain ๐ฎโ๐จ
Real businesses are coming on chain, and they're choosing to build on Bera.
The next gen of builders are thinking about where they can consistently scale their revs, their LTV/CAC ratio, and capital formation ability.
Berachain's Proof of Liquidity helps direct the network's resources to where they matter most - namely, in helping these applications win.
It was great to get a chance to yap a bit about how I see the space maturing as a whole, and to tell the crowd at the Hack Summit about @Starglow_world, @InfraredFinance, @liquidroyaltyX and many more profitable apps that call Bera their home.
Berachain builds businesses.
We're so excited to be in the shortlist for not one but TWO awards at #TheSPARKies2025 for Startup of the Year and the People's Choice award. Thank you @techSPARKuk for the recognition, and looking forward to the awards night in July! ๐
for those who aren't paying attention,@juliakemp is absolutely cooking
this is not just a great product building on @berachain, this is an great product PERIOD. we can finally witness true blockchain utility, all through the budding @usepawpass pet DID ecosystem. stay tuned ๐พ
We're one of the *many* ghosts building in stealth on @berachain. Now feels like a good time to say hi from the graveyard, and why I'm/we're bullish:
@usepawpass is building the first-ever digital ID for animals. We centralise all essential pet data - incl. medical records, vaccination histories, and travel documentation - into a verifiable, tamper-proof, reusable digital passport, allowing pet owners to share records instantly.
We had the chance to build on a lot of chains, so why Berachain?
They were the first team we met who:
1๏ธโฃ cared
2๏ธโฃ thought long-term about Web3
3๏ธโฃ *actually* supported builders
4๏ธโฃ want real long-term users
5โฃ operate like a solid team that supports each other
6โฃ@SmokeyTheBera has a long-term vision of the ecosystem and is making strategic bets, not hype cycles
7โฃ care about bringing real, mass consumer use cases on-chain
We believe every pet should have a digital identity. We also believe blockchain is the best technology to achieve that. Our users donโt know (or care) itโs on-chain, and thatโs the point. We need a solid ghost chain to run silently in the background. We need a chain with a solid, long-term vision.
If youโre a real builder, focus on users, revenue, and real adoption.
Berachain.
We havenโt quite expanded into cats yetโฆ but @EntrepreneurMAG seems to have other ideas ๐น Typo cat-astropheโฆ or vision for our future?
Either as Pawpuss or Pawpass, we're so excited that we've been named one of the Top 100 startups redefining innovation and entrepreneurship in London by @EntrepreneurUK!
Proud to be building in the UK and honoured to be in such great company! ๐ Full article in comments.

Game plan here is pretty clear imo
- Continue bringing top tier talent to the team (welcome @0xcarnation and @_AstroBera)
- Work with @bgtfdn to ensure that there are clear guidelines and goals around governance, reward vaults etc, including the role/importance of $BERA in PoL
- Support the Bera builders who've been here since day 1, and work with them to make Berachain into an incredibly welcome environment for builders (both old and new)
- Double down on teams building distribution-driven businesses which are less correlated to macro whiplash DeFi rates (ie. @puffpaw, @playwithOU, @narralayer, @usepawpass, @wai_protocol, @sukukfi)
- Continue to bring new teams into PoL, especially those with robust sustainable incentive bases built around hard assets (ie. @avalonfinance_, @SolvProtocol and @Bedrock_DeFi bringing BTC-adjacent incentives to Bera)
- Encourage novel uses of PoL beyond passive liquidity to drive volume, fees, economic activity and usage as teams like @TheBullas_, @SX_Bet, @kumadotbid, @ramen_finance and others are exploring
- Improve product UX (shoutout folks like @0xMop_ and @SwappeeFinance doing this proactively) especially around incentive addition distribution for incoming reward vaults
- Let the culture keep flowing, esp with teams like @steadyteddys, @TheBullas_, @eatsleepyeet, @berabaddies, @Bera_Land, @The_HoneyCast, @cave_off and many others contributing
- Refine messaging "bite sized" versions of Berachain and PoL as a whole, iterate with feedback
- Keep building the shit that matters.

In @McKinseyโs new report (The 14 most important technology trends...) user experience is a challenge for early adopters of Web3. I agree and here's why ๐งต
6. There is a large learning curve attached with many projects and we can adopt Jakob's Law - lowering the strain of using something new by having similar expectations of what we have used before e.g. Web2
