PANews reported on June 4 that, according to CoinDesk, Berachain, a Layer1 blockchain, announced that it had become the first non-Ethereum chain to fully realize the functions of Ethereum's Pectra execution layer through the "Bectra" hard fork. This upgrade will provide enhanced tools for more than 100 applications on the chain and improve the user and developer interaction experience.

The upgrade to Bectra brings smart account functionality to users' wallets, allowing them to trade in bulk, set spending limits, pay gas fees with the stablecoin HONEY, and make recurring payments, which previously relied on custom contracts or third-party implementations. As an EVM equivalent, Berachain uses a unique Proof-of-Liquidity (PoL) consensus mechanism to maintain network security by rewarding liquidity providers instead of traditional staking. Although Pectra's consensus layer changes are not synchronized, there are more than 200 existing applications that can adapt to the new features without rewriting the contract due to EVM compatibility.
