According to Odaily, Berachain, an L1 public chain, has announced the launch of its public testnet, bArtio B2, on platform X. This follows an announcement in April that Berachain's funding round B had increased to $100 million. The funding round was led by the Abu Dhabi branch of Brevan Howard Digital and Framework Ventures. Other participants in the funding round included Polychain Capital, Hack VC, and Tribe Capital. The launch of the public testnet and the increase in funding are significant developments for Berachain, indicating a positive trajectory for the company.
