# BGT Token

<Info>
  BGT was deprecated on July 8, 2026. See the full post here: [https://x.com/berachain/status/2074901414149771549?s=20](https://x.com/berachain/status/2074901414149771549?s=20)
</Info>

BGT is a legacy token that is being **deprecated**. It was used in earlier iterations of Proof of Liquidity for governance and reward routing.

It no longer influences validator reward allocation weight, block rewards, or ecosystem proposals. See [What's New](/general/proof-of-liquidity/changelog#bgt-is-deprecated) for the full deprecation context.

## Redeem BGT for BERA

Users who still hold BGT can visit the [Berachain Hub](https://hub.berachain.com/), which will help you unboost your BGT, redeem it for BERA, and stake into \$sWBERA to continue earning yield for PoL incentives.
