In essence, the clause was Brevan\u2019s and Nova\u2019s insurance against a price dump, and the only way they could recoup their funds was if BERA surged, printing higher highs only.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">To trigger this refund, Nova had to deposit $5M into a designated Berachain wallet by March 8. This fund acted as collateral or a liquidity commitment. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">For now, it remains to be seen whether the clause was exercised, and if Berachain had to repay Nova and Brevan in cash, it could explain why BERA USDT has been selling off steadily after peaking in February.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">DISCOVER: <\/span><a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/cryptocurrency\/new-binance-listings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">16+ New and Upcoming Binance Listings in 2025<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways\">\n<h2 class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__title\">Berachain VC Troubles: Is This Why BERA Crypto is Down -92%? <\/h2>\n<ul class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__list\">\n<li class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__list-item\">\n         <span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Berachain is DeFi-focused.<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span>    <\/li>\n<li class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__list-item\">\n         <span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">BERA crypto down -92% from all-time highs. <\/span>    <\/li>\n<li class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__list-item\">\n         <span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Nova has a right to demand a refund from Berachain<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span>    <\/li>\n<li class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__list-item\">\n         <span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Will BERA USDT continue falling?<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span>    <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/news\/altcoins\/berachain-vc-troubles-is-this-why-bera-crypto-is-down-92\/\">Berachain VC Troubles: Is This Why BERA Crypto Is Down -92%?<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/\">99Bitcoins<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cB*tch better have my money..\u201d; it\u2019s a catchy tune most pop lovers might know by heart.
