About EIGEN, the EigenLayer Token
EigenLayer is a protocol built on Ethereum that introduces restaking, a new primitive in cryptoeconomic security. This primitive enables the reuse of ETH on the consensus layer. Users that stake ETH natively or with a liquid staking token (LST) can opt-in to EigenLayer smart contracts to restake their ETH or LST and extend cryptoeconomic security to additional applications on the network to earn additional rewards.
EIGEN is a native token of EigenLayer which is a Universal Intersubjective Work Token to complement ETH as the Universal Objective Work Token in EigenLayer. Holders can use EIGEN to secure EigenDA, Eigenlayer’s Actively Validated Service (AVS) for data availability.
