According to TechFlow, Berachain announced the upgrade to Berachain V2. Berachain V2 introduces the BeaconKit framework, improves the architecture and consensus mechanism, and provides a better EVM smart contract development experience to enhance liquidity and economic security.

The V2 version maintains Berachain's three-token model and PoL incentive mechanism, and adjusts the validator settings, increasing the number of validators from 100 to 256 to support the expected large-scale TVL. In addition, the new modular design improves the collaboration and security of the entire ecosystem through shared liquidity.

Berachain V2 is a significant improvement over V1, improving the diversity of execution clients and addressing the issue with V1’s memory pool not being able to keep up with block space demand.
