One question that friends in the Chinese community often ask me is: What applications are there on Berachain.
I often share with great detail.
Now I suddenly realize that perhaps we have focused on the wrong point.
The real question is not how many applications there are, but rather: What value do these applications contribute to the network we are building together.
Recently, I have indeed seen some interesting trends, where developers, in addition to functional innovations at the product level, are increasingly focusing on innovative business models at the protocol layer.
For example, @liquidroyaltyX breaks down the future income of e-commerce stores into on-chain assets that anyone can purchase, allowing holders to receive real dividends in USDe from the store.
On Berachain, a real cash flow + POL incentive overlay effect has formed, creating a stable growth revenue structure that traditional RWA cannot achieve.
This is also something that cannot be realized in the business models of Web2.
This resonates perfectly with Smokey's viewpoint that, in addition to traffic-driven applications, we also need more native value-driven applications.
In my view, Bera's biggest opportunity lies in: we are not just building a new chain, we have the chance to redefine the collaboration paradigm between public chains and applications.
This requires courage, and it is not easy, but it is worth it.
Because ultimately, what we want to build is a value community where all participants can share in the growth dividends.
I look forward to exploring the future of Berachain with more builders and users.
After all, the most valuable innovations often occur at moments when rules are being rewritten.
