- Location
- Check official terms
- A directory listing is not a guaranteed reward, allocation, or claim window.
- Wallet connections and token approvals can create loss or phishing risk.
- Campaign terms, geography restrictions, fees, and required capital may change or be undisclosed.
- The IR airdrop claim window closed on 2026-01-01 UTC; unclaimed tokens cannot be recovered, so any new claim surfaced later should be treated with extra skepticism and verified directly against the project’s own channels.
- No public third-party smart-contract audit by a named firm was verified at refresh time; only Berachain’s broader Immunefi bug-bounty program was confirmed.
- Live X timeline fetch was unavailable in this run — `xurl` is unauthenticated (no registered app), so `x_summary` is based on web search rather than the captured 30-day window.
Recorded task reference
Before you start
- Use a self-custody wallet only if the official campaign requires one; never share a seed phrase.
Review the official IR announcement and closure notice rather than attempting a new claim.

Context Project, team, campaigns and FAQ
What it is
- What it does
- Infrared Finance is a liquid-staking and yield-automation protocol built on Berachain; it lets users deposit BERA and BGT into PoL vaults and receive liquid versions (iBERA, iBGT) that stay usable across Berachain DeFi while delegating underlying liquidity to the chain’s Proof-of-Liquidity consensus. The project’s IR governance and incentive token is live on multiple exchanges.
- Who uses or pays
- Who uses and pays for the product still needs verification.
- What is live
- The current live product state is not yet recorded separately from campaign research.
- Where value flows
- Infrared reported a $14M Series A led by Framework Ventures in early 2025, bringing disclosed total funding to roughly $18.75M, with participation from Animoca Brands, NGC Ventures, CitizenX, Selini Capital, Halo Capital, Symbolic Capital, and No Limit Holdings, plus an earlier undisclosed strategic tranche from Binance Labs. No public third-party smart-contract audit report by a named firm (e.g., Trail of Bits, OpenZeppelin, Spearbit, Halborn) was verified at refresh time; Berachain’s broader Immunefi bug-bounty program covers the ecosystem.
