I keep thinking about how crypto keeps repeating the same mistake.
We lock capital.
We wait.
We hope price goes up.
That’s been the default for years.
Then Berachain shows up and says: “Why is liquidity just sitting there doing nothing?”
And Infrared quietly answers that question.
That’s how I see $IR .
Infrared isn’t loud. It’s not begging for attention.
It’s just solving a very real problem:
How do you earn, stay liquid, and still participate in DeFi at the same time?
By turning things like BGT and BERA into liquid assets (iBGT / iBERA), Infrared gives users flexibility.
You’re not choosing between staking and using your capital anymore. You’re doing both.
That’s a big deal.
$IR , to me, feels like one of those tokens you only fully appreciate after you understand the system behind it.
It’s governance.
It’s utility.
It’s tied directly to whether Berachain’s Proof-of-Liquidity actually works at scale.
And right now?
We’re still early.
Low circulating supply.
Messy price discovery.
Volatility everywhere.
That’s usually the phase where most people ignore a project…
until it becomes obvious.
Not saying $IR will moon tomorrow.
But if Berachain keeps attracting liquidity, and Infrared stays at the center of that flow, it’s hard to ignore what that could mean long term.
Sometimes the real alpha isn’t hype.
It’s understanding why something exists.
And $IR exists for a reason.
Just sharing my view.
Curious how others here see Infrared and the whole PoL experiment
