The BNB Chain aims to strengthen the foundation for these systems, and this program represents a significant step in that direction.
Why It Matters
This round of the incentive program awarded rewards and provided opportunities for growth and development. It measured performance and backed it up with real delegation support. The BNB Chain Foundation rewarded protocols with up to 5% of their BNB staking growth, capped at 20,000 BNB each, totaling 50,000 BNB.
The goal was straightforward: to grow BNB Chain, particularly in areas related to liquid staking and restaking. Decentralized AI networks, along with AI bridges and innovations such as DEPIN and DVNs, need these tools for functioning. The foundation put a limit on delegation support at 50,000 BNB and required each protocol to have no more than 20,000 BNB funding.
BNBCHAIN officially announced that the fifth round of TVL incentive plan has officially ended, focusing on supporting BNB restaking, LRT and LST ecosystems. Five major protocols including Kernel, Aster, YieldNestFi, Transchess and Lista have received delegation support ranging&

The ranking measured the total number of new BNBs each project staked, as well as the percentage of growth it achieved. They also had to meet specific benchmarks, such as $10 million in TVL, and complete two security audits.

Conclusion
The BNB Chain is actively investing in projects that strengthen its restaking and DeFi ecosystem. With $40 million recently committed by KernelDAO and strong community participation, this fifth TVL program marks a big step forward. BNB Chain is betting on the future of restaking.
