what's infrared finance?

Infrared Finance is a decentralized finance protocol built on the Berachain blockchain, specializing in liquid staking solutions for Berachain's Proof of Liquidity (PoL) consensus mechanism. It enables users to stake native tokens like BERA while maintaining liquidity through products such as iBERA and iBGT, which can be used in DeFi activities to earn additional yields. The protocol simplifies participation in PoL by offering vaults that maximize rewards without locking assets. Infrared leads the Berachain ecosystem in total value locked (TVL), accounting for a significant portion of DeFi activity on the chain. It has raised substantial funding and integrates with various Berachain protocols for enhanced capital efficiency.
