Bera USD (BUSD): What It Is, Uses and Risks

Bera USD (BUSD) is a stablecoin issued on Berachain. Public sources place it in the Stablecoins category and tags it under the Berachain Ecosystem. Search material describes it as the native stablecoin of that ecosystem, meant to give users a stable medium of exchange and a base asset for trading. One search snippet says it replaced an earlier token called HONEY in a rebrand. That is a claim from a search result, not something public sources confirm. Public sources do not name a project team, a launch date, or a consensus method, so those points are not covered here.

Search material says BUSD serves the same purposes as other dollar-pegged stablecoins: payments, remittances, and reducing exposure to price swings in volatile assets. It is described as widely used across Berachain DeFi as a base trading asset, meaning a dollar-denominated unit that other tokens are traded against. On Berachain, the network's own token, BERA, pays gas fees and is used in staking, while BUSD is described as the network's stablecoin. The sources do not name specific lending, trading, or payment venues, so this page does not list any.

As of 2026-11-05, the data shows a price of about $1.004, a market capitalisation of about $5.9 million, and a market cap rank of 1594. Circulating supply is about 5.87 million tokens, equal to the total supply, and no maximum supply is listed. The 24-hour trading volume was about $226,000. The 7-day and 1-year price changes were both close to zero. The all-time high was $2.00 on 2026-02-20, and the all-time low was about $0.864 on 2026-05-23. These figures change constantly and are shown only as a snapshot. They are not a forecast or a basis for any decision.

A stablecoin is meant to hold a fixed value, but the price can drift away from its target. The recorded low of about $0.86 shows BUSD has traded well below $1 in this dataset, and the high of $2.00 shows it has also traded above it. Public sources do not explain what backs the token or how it is kept near $1, so readers cannot judge that mechanism from this page. A small market cap and modest daily volume can make the price move more on sizeable trades and make exits harder. Smart contract bugs, problems on Berachain itself, bridge failures, and changing rules for stablecoins are further risks.

Check the token's contract address from the chain's official resources before you buy or send funds, because copycat tokens with similar names are common. Use a wallet that supports Berachain and confirm you are on the right network before any transfer. A small test transfer can confirm an address and network before you move a larger amount. Keep recovery phrases offline and never share them with anyone who asks. Holding a stablecoin still carries the risks above, so only hold what you can afford to have tied up or lose value.
