KernelDAO is a united restaking ecosystem composed of Kelp, Kernel, and Gain. Today, the platform announced a series of significant ecosystem development initiatives, further solidifying its leading position as a shared security platform across Ethereum, BNB Chain, and the Bitcoin market.
Full-Ecosystem Token Incentive Program
To demonstrate ecosystem synergy, key partners Mira (AI coprocessor) and YieldNest (liquid restaking protocol) have announced they will each allocate 1-2% of their token supply to $KERNEL holders. This strategic move sets a new benchmark for future collaboration agreements, with over 25 KernelDAO partners expected to follow suit.
Amitej Gajjala, CEO and Co-founder of KernelDAO, said: “This collaborative token distribution reflects the strong alliance we’ve built within the KernelDAO ecosystem. Shared success among protocols will create value for the entire ecosystem.”
$40 Million Ecosystem Fund to Drive Growth
This news follows KernelDAO’s announcement last week of a $40 million ecosystem fund. The fund is backed by several prominent venture capital firms and investment institutions, including Laser Digital, SCB Limited, Hypersphere Ventures, Cypher Capital, ArkStream, and Levitate Labs. It will support developers in building innovative projects and further strengthen Kernel’s leadership as restaking infrastructure on BNB Chain.
Supported by over 20 Dynamic Validation Networks (DVNs), KernelDAO plans to onboard more than 45 strategic partners through the ecosystem fund, expanding its ecosystem footprint.
With combined momentum from token incentives and the ecosystem fund, KernelDAO is building a powerful growth engine, positioning itself as a central force in the emerging restaking economy.
