How Divvi Sweetens the Pie for Berachain Ecosystem Builders

Published on
March 14, 2025

The Berachain ecosystem breaks new ground in blockchain incentive design. With the introduction of Proof-of-Liquidity (PoL), Berachain reimagines how protocols, validators, and users could be naturally incentivized to collaborate rather than compete. 

Divvi complements Berachain’s Proof-of-Liquidity incentive marketplace by providing a separate revenue stream for early builders: real-time rewards based on impact. 

Divvi is excited to onboard companies within the Berachain Ecosystem: Prism, Dolomite, and Kodiak onto Divvi's pay-for-impact protocol to provide early builders with reliable revenue streams. Divvi’s real-time funding fuels builders’ ability to quickly launch and iterate, empowering them while they work to attract the level of liquidity that would unlock PoL incentives.

Impact-Based Incentives for Early Builders

Divvi’s permissionless revenue-sharing layer redefines how builders and protocols collaborate by ensuring that impactful contributions are measured and rewarded. 

Historically, Web3 has struggled to effectively incentivize front-end developers. While backend protocols control capital and infrastructure, builders—who create user-friendly interfaces that drive adoption—lack sustainable business models. This imbalance has hindered broader adoption, with a study showing that over 75% of Web3 projects fail to sustain long-term development due to financial constraints and lack of user adoption.

With Divvi, protocols can define the "Number Go Up" (NGU) metric that matters most to them and reward builders for the value they generate. For Berachain protocols, some ideas of NGUs could be:

  • Dolomite could track liquidity supplied in the form of incremental total value locked (TVL) 
  • Kodiak could measure transaction volume or number of trades on their DEX or deposits to their liquidity pools
  • Prism could securely incentivize partners and users to publish more privacy-preserving ads to the most engaged ecosystem users via their TINT Platform

Through smart contract-enforced reward distributions, Divvi ensures frontend builders quickly and automatically earn protocol revenue before they’ve passed the transaction threshold to access Bera rewards. 

Growing the Web3 Pie

Instead of competing for value capture, Berachain and Divvi show that collaboration can be rewarded to benefit all parties. By aligning incentives across the entire ecosystem, we can do more than redistribute existing value – we can actively grow (and sweeten) the web3 pie. 

With Divvi, Berachain protocols can incentivize early builders to tap into new user segments and innovative interfaces. Builders receive fair, performance-based compensation that rewards genuine impact, rather than speculative promises. Users ultimately benefit from more user-centric, thoughtfully designed applications that solve real-world problems.

The result is a virtuous cycle: as builders create more compelling experiences, protocols gain more users, users receive better products, and the entire web3 ecosystem becomes more attractive to new participants.

A Practical Example

If a developer is creating a mobile interface for a PoL liquidity application built on Prism’s FHE stack, their potential earnings would come from two key sources:

  1. Berachain’s Proof-of-Liquidity (PoL) incentives
  2. Builder incentive campaigns run on Divvi

Divvi facilitates permissionless and automatic incentive campaigns funded by Berachain protocols aimed at rewarding builders based on the impact they generate from the moment they launch their apps. Protocols define the impact they want to incentivize and will measure (their NGU: Number Go Up -  which could be anything) and they assign a value for each unit of their NGU increase. Builders earn value for every unit of NGU they increase.

For example DeFi apps are likely to look at TVL or transaction volume, while DeSoc apps will want to grow engagement, and DePINs might want to expand their node count. 

Kodiak is likely to want to measure and reward: 

  • Transaction Fee Revenue

If the mobile interface routes payments or DeFi transactions to Kodiak through Divvi, the developer could earn a cut of transaction fees collected by Divvi.
