EIGENLAYER

Building humanity's coordination engine for open innovation

Overview

EigenLayer is a decentralized protocol built on Ethereum, designed to enhance the security and scalability of various blockchain applications. It allows Ethereum stakers to "restake" their ETH and secure multiple decentralized networks beyond Ethereum itself, leveraging the security of the existing Ethereum infrastructure. By enabling ETH holders to secure various services like data availability layers, oracles, or bridges, EigenLayer encourages innovation by reducing the need for individual projects to develop their own security systems. It aims to create a modular ecosystem, allowing diverse projects to benefit from Ethereum’s robust security while maintaining decentralization.
The Eigen token is expected to play a crucial role in the EigenLayer ecosystem, though as of recent updates, a token hasn't been officially launched. Once introduced, it is likely to have the following key functions: Governance, Incentives and Staking, Fee Payment, and Security Mechanism. These potential uses would align with EigenLayer's goal of enhancing security and promoting decentralized innovation.
