EigenLayer is a protocol built on Ethereum that introduces the concept of restaking, allowing Ethereum nodes to restake their staked ETH in other protocols or services that require security and trust. This enables restakers to earn dual rewards and governance rights. By redirecting the withdrawal credentials of their validators to EigenPods within the EigenLayer protocol, restakers can minimize smart contract risks.

EigenLayer is developed by EigenLabs. They recently secured significant funding, including a Series A round of $50 million led by Blockchain Capital in March 2023. Coinbase Ventures and Polychain Capital also participated in the funding round, demonstrating the project's appeal. In February 2024, renowned US venture capital firm a16z invested an additional $100 million in the project. EigenLayer currently boasts a Total Value Locked (TVL) of $15 billion.
