**Beracana** is an undercollateralized lending protocol built on **Berachain**, designed to unlock maximum capital efficiency and farmable yield across the ecosystem. It allows users to deposit assets like **BERA, wBERA, and NECT**, and borrow against them with up to **7x leverage** to farm governance tokens such as **BGT**.

By integrating directly with protocols like **Infrared, Beradrome, Berapaw, Kodiak, Burrbear**, and **RootsFi**, Beracana automates the entire leverage flow, from collateral deposit to yield farming, while managing vaults, rewards, and auto-compounding behind the scenes.

The protocol issues interest-bearing tokens (e.g., **canaBERA, canaNECT**) to lenders, enabling passive yield, while borrowers deploy their capital into high-yield farming strategies. Users also earn **xCANA points**, which are redeemable 1:1 for $CANA tokens post-IDO and serve as the basis for future emissions and rewards.

Beracana's mission is to **amplify governance power, maximize DeFi yield**, and become the leverage engine of the Berachain economy.
