The restaking platform EigenLayer and its data availability layer EigenDA launched on the Ethereum mainnet Tuesday.
EigenLayer allows users to stake ether and earn a liquid staking token , which can then be restaked for more rewards. The native restaking is done through EigenPod, a user-managed smart contract that helps monitor balance and withdraw statuses. The mainnet launch does not entail AVS in-protocol payments to operators or slashing, however. "We are allowing the EigenLayer marketplace to develop and stabilize before introducing in-protocol payments and slashing to mainnet later this year," the protocol added in the statement.
EigenLayer maintains around $13.4 billion in total value locked , according to the crypto data tracker DeFiLlama. EigenLayer surpassed the $10 billion TVL threshold on March 3, 2024, The Block previously reported.
