BERG
Autonomous Hybrid DeFi Yield Fund
1 Abstract
BERG is a tokenized, autonomous hybrid DeFi yield fund operating across 450+ liquidity venues on 25+ blockchains, packaged into transparent, on-chain index products. Capital deposited by investors is algorithmically allocated across delta-neutral, looping and correlation-tiered strategies, with rewards auto-compounded. The fund is structured for full legal compliance within the Russian Federation and the wider CIS regulatory perimeter.
The $BERG token (fixed supply 100,000,000, deployed on Base mainnet) is the fund's coordination asset: it captures protocol revenue via staking, governs treasury policy via on-chain DAO voting, and is distributed to backers through a multi-round private and public sale with transparent vesting enforced by smart contracts.
2 The Opportunity
On-chain yield is fragmented: thousands of pools across dozens of chains, each with shifting APRs, divergent risk profiles and impermanent-loss exposure. Retail and institutional allocators in the CIS region lack a compliant, single-surface product that abstracts this complexity while preserving the transparency that makes DeFi auditable.
BERG addresses this by operating as an actively-managed but rules-based fund: strategies are codified, positions are visible on-chain, and exposure is delivered as index units. The fund targets a sustainable 15–20% net APR with explicit drawdown and IL controls — not unsustainable emissions.
3 Fund Architecture
Capital moves through four sequential layers. Deposits flow forward; withdrawals retrace the exact same path in reverse — there are no lateral movements between layers, which keeps the audit trail linear and verifiable.
- L1 — Entry. Investor deposits (USDC / ETH) are received and accounted per-wallet.
- L2 — Routing. Bridging and CEX/DEX routing position capital on target chains.
- L3 — Strategy. Capital is deployed into the five strategy buckets (see §4).
- L4 — Cold Treasury. Reserves are held in sector-based multi-sig vaults (see §5).
4 Yield Strategies
Allocation across five fixed-weight strategy tiers:
| Strategy | Weight | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Delta-Neutral | 25% | Market-neutral funding & basis capture, minimal directional risk. |
| Looping | 25% | Recursive collateral/borrow loops on blue-chip lending markets. |
| High-Correlated | 25% | LP positions in tightly correlated pairs to minimise IL. |
| Medium-Correlated | 15% | Balanced LP exposure with active range management. |
| Non-Correlated | 10% | Opportunistic, higher-variance yield with strict caps. |
5 Treasury & Custody
Cold reserves are distributed across five sector-based multi-signature vaults secured by a 4-of-6 signing threshold and a 24-hour time-lock on every outflow. Six holders sign; no single party can move funds.
Treasury reporting is published on-chain. The on-platform operator console reconciles balances against the public ledger in real time.
6 The $BERG Token
$BERG is a fixed-supply ERC-20 deployed on Base mainnet (low fees, Ethereum security). The entire supply of 100,000,000 BERG was minted at genesis to the fund treasury; no further minting is possible (no mint function exposed post-deployment).
- Revenue capture: stakers receive a share of fund revenue (see §10).
- Governance: staked BERG = voting power over treasury policy (see §11).
- Access: priority allocation in future products and index launches.

8 Vesting Schedule
Every allocation vests under an on-chain schedule enforced by the BergVesting contract. No allocation can be claimed faster than its schedule permits — the contract is the single source of truth.
| Allocation | Schedule |
|---|---|
| Angel | 6-month cliff, then linear over 12 months |
| Pre-Seed Round | 3-month cliff, then linear over 12 months |
| Seed Round | 2-month cliff, then linear over 12 months |
| Strategic Round | 1-month cliff, then linear over 12 months |
| Series A Round | 10% on TGE, then linear over 12 months |
| Series B Round | 10% on TGE, then linear over 12 months |
| VC Partnerships | 12.5% on TGE, then linear over 12 months |
| Public / IDO | 15% on TGE, then linear over 8 months |
| Team | 12-month cliff, then linear over 48 months |
| External Development Teams | 9-month cliff, then linear over 36 months |
| Governance Treasury | Locked up |
| Community Incentives | 10% on TGE, then linear over 24 months |
| Advisors | 3-month cliff, then linear over 24 months |
| Liquidity Pool | None (liquid at TGE) |
9 Sale & On-chain Delivery
The fundraise runs in sequential rounds at ascending prices:
| Round | Price | Tokens | Raise |
|---|---|---|---|
| Angel · LIVE | $0.01 | 10M | $100,000 |
| Pre-Seed Round | $0.03 | 6.3M | $187,500 |
| Seed Round | $0.05 | 5.8M | $291,500 |
| Strategic Round | $0.1 | 10.9M | $1,092,000 |
| Series A Round | $0.15 | 2M | $300,000 |
| Series B Round | $0.15 | 2M | $300,000 |
| VC Partnerships | $0.2 | 4M | $800,000 |
| Public / IDO | $0.2 | 3M | $600,000 |
Purchase & delivery flow:
- Investor connects a wallet and passes KYC/whitelist.
- Payment (USDC or native ETH) settles on-chain to the fund treasury.
- The allocation is registered on the BergVesting contract.
- From TGE, the investor claims unlocked $BERG directly from the contract — no intermediary holds the tokens.
10 Staking
Holders stake $BERG to receive a share of fund revenue. The model targets a 15–20% reward rate funded by real protocol income (a ~50% revenue share to stakers), not inflationary emissions. Staked BERG simultaneously confers governance power.
11 Governance (DAO)
Voting power equals staked $BERG. Token holders propose and vote on treasury policy, strategy weights, new index launches and parameter changes. A 20% Governance Treasury allocation (locked) backstops long-term protocol-owned liquidity and grants, deployable only by DAO vote.
12 Referral Program
Every wallet generates a referral link (?ref=<wallet>). The referrer earns 5% in $BERG on the volume of every purchase they bring — uncapped, credited automatically. The referral graph is tracked on the platform ledger and is visible to operators in real time, so attribution of who brought how much is fully auditable.
13 Smart Contracts
All contracts are deployed and verifiable on Base mainnet (chainId 8453):
| Contract | Address |
|---|---|
| BERG token (ERC-20) | 0x58cEa923796f026Fd773622F29C6043071d119b9 |
| Vesting | 0xa9cF771672AAE3c2bbb6E6912442611133482d47 |
| Sale / IDO | 0x566fc537F367612f92eDf2862d9Eb9Ec9Bea6E71 |
| Staking | 0xa95A92f141ca6D1658Df830E8bAA6a32d6D16F20 |
| Treasury | 0xDe02a1f896c6e8C1BE8b4c93EeA41e15086e8d8E |
Contracts are built on audited OpenZeppelin v5 primitives (Ownable, ReentrancyGuard, SafeERC20). The token has no post-deployment mint path; vesting and sale parameters are enforced on-chain.
14 Legal & Compliance
BERG is structured to operate within the Russian Federation and the CIS regulatory perimeter. All participants pass KYC/AML whitelisting before purchase; the sale contract enforces whitelist gating at the protocol level. The fund tracks emerging frameworks (incl. MiCA for EU-facing activity) and adapts disclosures accordingly.
15 Roadmap
- Phase 1 — Raise. Angel → public rounds, contracts live on Base, on-chain vesting.
- Phase 2 — TGE & Listing. Liquidity at $0.20, claims open, staking & governance live.
- Phase 3 — Index Expansion. Additional index products, cross-chain coverage, DAO-led strategy tuning.
16 Risk Factors
DeFi investment carries risk: smart-contract vulnerabilities, impermanent loss, market drawdown, bridge/oracle failure, counterparty and regulatory risk. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Strategies employ drawdown and IL controls, multi-sig custody and on-chain transparency to mitigate — but not eliminate — these risks.
