EigenLayer

EigenLayer is an innovative project designed to enhance the security and scalability of the Ethereum network by enabling the restaking of ETH across multiple protocols. This system allows staked ETH to be used as cryptoeconomic security for other protocols in exchange for fees and rewards, optimizing capital efficiency for validators and offering new possibilities for developers within the Ethereum ecosystem.

EigenLayer is airdropping 15% of the total supply of EIGEN tokens for airdrops across all seasons. Season 1 Phase 1 and Phase 2 airdrops are live now, where 6.7% of the total supply has been allocated.

Users who’ve restaked ETH or LSTs on EigenLayer by the snapshot date are eligible for the Season 1 Phase 1 airdrop. DeFi adventurers who engaged with Kelp, Pendle, Equilibrium, and other protocols before March 15, 2024 are eligible for the Season 1 Phase 2 airdrop.
