Recently came across @berachain's BEND launch and couldn't help but take a closer look. This lending layer has finally been filled in, powered by morpho, with the interest rate curve directly tied to HONEY. The liquidity proof was already impressive, and now with added leverage, those perps and DeFi projects in the ecosystem are suddenly buzzing. Thinking back to last month's airdrop, that $BERA 21k in my pocket felt like scoring a cheap property. The base interest rate is stable, and with lending expanded, smart money has already been lurking in Kodiak and Smilee, waiting for a wave at TGE. But to be honest, the marketing aspect still needs optimization. PrismFHE's privacy hotspots are flying everywhere, and the foundation isn't promoting it—how much traffic have they missed? Bend and morpho should be making a big splash together, but right now it feels like they're quietly holding back a big move. My little plan: keep an eye on on-chain, holders in the top 50 go into Debank, check out the LBTC they're moving in the Lombard vault, with 70% of Ethereum bridging there, and Berachain has 6% juice, creating a large cross-chain arbitrage opportunity. Don't rush into FOMO; study Amy and Cookie's attention model. Once the leaderboard is out, community energy will explode. This wave of cultural narrative around $AMY is something Berachain can be proud of. It's back season, cast a wide net, maximize the risk-reward ratio, and calculate lending risks before placing bets. In the on-chain casino, everyone relies on their own skills.
