Eigenlayer: On Liquid Restaking: Risks & Considerations - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/Eigenlayer-On-Liquid-Restaking-Risks-and-Considerations?index=0x660221d9c50407ea6dee63db25e7f73d878779a0b2dbe6551bc6147773a4b4398da58a66 - Source: https://www.blog.eigenlayer.xyz/liquid-restaking - Shared 26 March 2024, 3 upvotes, 1 comment Eigen Labs warns that liquid restaking tokens (LRTs) add complexity and risk to EigenLayer restaking, and urges users to assess these risks before participating. The post highlights two risks: financialization through recursive borrowing, called "looping," which creates leverage that can amplify losses, and a lack of liquidity. Some liquid restaking protocols do not yet offer unstaking, and their withdrawal policies are unclear, while EigenLayer contracts allow restakers to withdraw with a known one-week delay. Users forced to sell LRTs on thinly traded markets could push prices below ETH, with knock-on effects in DeFi. ## 2. Redistribution is Live on Testnet - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/Redistribution-is-Live-on-Testnet?index=0x6842b295f1c82e279a285a02b9680d4d2becb0905bd4715670a7dd7655ebc5a7a8f6e300 - Source: https://www.blog.eigenlayer.xyz/redistribution-is-live-on-testnet - Shared 6 June 2025, 2 upvotes, 1 comment Eigen Labs has announced that the Redistribution feature is now live on the Holesky, Sepolia, and Hoodi testnets, letting AVSs repurpose and distribute slashed funds instead of burning them. The company says this expands slashing on EigenLayer to use cases such as lending and insurance, including compensating harmed parties or rewarding reliable Operators. Redistribution is opt-in for AVSs and Operators, and non-ETH assets such as LSTs, EIGEN, and USDC are eligible in this release, while native ETH is not yet. Mainnet availability is expected in late June or July. ## 3. Introducing Verifiable Agents on EigenLayer - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/Introducing-Verifiable-Agents-on-EigenLayer?index=0x67a3112160866057d075c130baf4424dc6b36ee35027f5f5b3416fd8f17742991fe82fc9 - Source: https://www.blog.eigenlayer.xyz/introducing-verifiable-agents-on-eigenlayer - Shared 5 February 2025, 2 upvotes, 0 comments EigenLayer proposes "Level 1 Agents," which use verifiable services built as AVSs for tool calls, because running agents fully onchain is impractical. The post says LLM attention memory grows quadratically with prompt length, becoming a bottleneck past about 100k tokens, and that inference cannot practically run inside a smart contract. Its claimed basis for verifiability is that AVS operators validate outputs because they risk being slashed and losing future revenue. Sreeram Kannan wrote in a January 5, 2025 post that agents should run as AVSs to achieve unstoppability. ## 4. Announcing: EigenLayer ♾ EigenDA Mainnet Launch - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/Announcing-EigenLayer-EigenDA-Mainnet-Launch?index=0x6618022df1b4b5aea27ed0220647d6397c16fcc8cf867aa6dd89211481e22ac5f95779a3 - Source: https://www.blog.eigenlayer.xyz/mainnet-launch-eigenlayer-eigenda - Shared 11 April 2024, 2 upvotes, 0 comments EigenLayer and EigenDA have launched on Ethereum mainnet, letting restakers delegate their entire stake to operators, operators opt in to run AVSs, and AVSs such as EigenDA register with the protocol. The launch excludes in-protocol payments from AVSs to operators and slashing, which the team plans to introduce later this year. EigenDA's active operator set is limited to the largest 200 operators by delegated stake, a cap the text attributes to a gas cost constraint on signature verification. Rollups can onboard to EigenDA on mainnet only after the operator set and delegations stabilize, so testing continues on Holesky for now. ## 5. EigenLayer Mainnet: Preparation for launch! - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/EigenLayer-Mainnet-Preparation-for-launch?index=0x65f306da8bded4b90789c2c2211135676eb2ca899973e205213ca4800718eed98cf160b5 - Source: https://www.blog.eigenlayer.xyz/eigenlayer-mainnet-preparation-for-launch - Shared 14 March 2024, 2 upvotes, 0 comments EigenLayer announced a multi-phased rollout for its mainnet launch, starting now and continuing over the next several weeks, with the stated goal of balancing security and performance. The final testnet is moving from Goerli to Holesky because the Ethereum client teams no longer actively support Goerli, after more than 6K operators took part in tests on the Stage 2 testnet. The phases include pausing the webapp and all mainnet contracts to halt deposits and withdrawals, then gradual operator registration, followed by the EigenDA launch, which targets a write throughput of 10 MB/s at launch. Restaker delegations, deposits and withdrawals are re-enabled once the mainnet launch phase completes. ## 6. Introducing Restaked Rollups - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/Introducing-Restaked-Rollups?index=0x6583eab10778e66546defa509f9a7360938ffbf0ba5932f0f1ab620236e6a2c5ccd8e303 - Source: https://www.blog.eigenlayer.xyz/restaked-rollups - Shared 21 December 2023, 2 upvotes, 0 comments EigenLayer and AltLayer announced a partnership to introduce "restaked rollups," a new category of EigenLayer AVS that bundles several rollup support services into a single integration. The services named include decentralized sequencing, verification, and fast finality, built on EigenLayer's shared security. The announcement says the framework combines ETH staking with AltLayer's end-to-end infrastructure and will give rollup developers one-click integration and a streamlined developer experience. The text also says EigenLayer's pooled economic security means an attacker must control a majority of the total restaked stake, for example $10B across 1000 services, to attack any one service. ## 7. Ava Protocol: Enabling Verifiable Execution for Agent-Driven Workflows - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/Ava-Protocol-Enabling-Verifiable-Execution-for-Agent-Driven-Workflows?index=0x68302b02a60d28e576cc86c6978f432448288ad640a6151e2b5517014cb593505258bbb1 - Source: https://www.blog.eigenlayer.xyz/ava-protocol-verifiable-execution - Shared 23 May 2025, 1 upvote, 0 comments Ava Protocol argues that autonomous agents should not execute onchain actions directly, and that a verification layer should check their decisions first. Built as an Autonomous Verifiable Service on EigenLayer, Ava lets developers define rules, after which agents submit verdicts that a decentralized operator network checks against those rules. If a verdict is validated, Ava issues a cryptographically signed trigger and executes the action onchain, or first relays it to a human approver such as a DAO multisig or Telegram group. Operators hold economic stakes and can be slashed for misbehavior. ## 8. The Next Evolution in Slashing: Redistribution Coming to EigenLayer - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/The-Next-Evolution-in-Slashing-Redistribution-Coming-to-EigenLayer?index=0x681ecf733c6e5c8e836c555d8627377092bb9fcd83cec89f5a24dd8affea121832cc9877 - Source: https://www.blog.eigenlayer.xyz/redistribution-coming-soon - Shared 10 May 2025, 1 upvote, 0 comments EigenLayer is adding Redistribution, the next phase of its Slashing upgrade, which will let AVSs repurpose and distribute slashed funds according to their use case instead of burning them. Redistribution is live on the Holesky, Sepolia and Hoodi testnets as of May, with mainnet availability planned for June. It is opt-in for both AVSs and Operators, and for the first release all non-ETH assets, including LSTs, EIGEN and USDC, are eligible, while ETH is not.
