Led by Polychain Capital, the funding round enabled Berachain to source capital from a number of investors.

In reaction to the latest development, Berachain’s pseudonymous co-founder Smokey the Bera tweeted:
Berachain eyes new hires for its team
Notably Berachain used the latest development as an opportunity to advertise it is looking to expand its team with new hires, with a number of positions available for those willing to join the company’s staff.
Berachain is actively seeking talent, including a UI/UX designer, product managers, software engineers, developers, a data scientist, and a quantitative analyst, as advertised on their careers page.
The job postings emphasize the unique blend of experience on the Berachain team, featuring professionals from top tech companies like Apple, Coinbase, IBM, and Y-Combinator, alongside crypto native expertise from influential DeFi 2.0 protocols.
