Sky (formerly MakerDAO) announced a connection to Berachain, unveiled as part of its “agent framework,” aiming to blend two DeFi ecosystems.
This latest move involves deploying Polaris, one of Sky's latest ecosystem products, onto Berachain, a high-performance EVM-compatible blockchain known for its Proof of Liquidity (PoL) consensus mechanism.
The gist of this move is to combine Sky’s liquidity platform — backed by over $7.5 billion in USDS stablecoin — with Berachain’s architecture. Berachain’s PoL incentivizes users to provide liquidity to the network while keeping assets usable in DeFi protocols.
By integrating Sky’s USDS into Berachain via Polaris, Sky aims to tap into this system to create what’s being called the “first fully autonomous liquidity system on-chain.”
“This is a great example of how fast it’s possible to move with the Sky Agent Framework when you have founders and capital — and it will be a good showcase of how much scale Sky can bring to the table to new and growing ecosystems,” Sky founder Rune Christensen commented on X.
The initial phase focuses on expanding USDS stablecoins cross-chain, meaning USDS holders could engage with Berachain’s DeFi offerings, such as lending, trading or yield farming.
“Polaris taps into $7.5 billion of Sky ecosystem’s USDS to deploy capital into the Berachain ecosystem, combining one of DeFi’s most robust liquidity engines with Proof of Liquidity,” the Berachain Foundation said.
The Sky ecosystem is built around the USDS stablecoin and the SKY governance token, successors to MakerDAO’s DAI and MKR tokens.
In this ecosystem, the agent framework serves as a set of essential building blocks that aim to power and support the operations of various decentralized projects, or “Stars,” within the Sky ecosystem. The framework provides the infrastructure for these tokens and their decentralized applications.
Sky has evolved significantly since its inception. Originally launched on the Ethereum blockchain, it gained prominence by creating the DAI stablecoin (now USDS) in 2017, one of the first decentralized stablecoins pegged to the U.S. dollar.
Sky operates primarily on the Ethereum blockchain, where the bulk of its infrastructure, including the Sky Protocol, still resides.
