What to know:

Cult blockchain Berachain is set to go live on Feb. 6 at an unspecified time, per an X post.
The upcoming blockchain uses a proof-of-liquidity consensus mechanism to reward liquidity provision. In the past year, it has gained a cult following and an engaged social media community.
The blockchain is humorously set to launch in "Q5,” as the X post notes, a non-existent quarter beyond Q4 - which added to the anticipation for participating in Berachain-related platforms ahead of its mainnet launch.
Meanwhile, a pre-deposits application meant to bootstrap liquidity on Berachain racked up over $3 billion from users in under a week, as CoinDesk reported.
