While no clear date was given for the airdrop, it was stated that "The distribution will begin on or before September 17, 2024."

EigenLayer announced its second season stakedrop, in which it plans to distribute 86 million EIGEN to various stakeholders.

EigenLayer, which is expected to enter the tokenization phase, continues its efforts to increase platform activity. According to The Block, users who are eligible to receive airdrop from EigenLayer will be able to access their assets as of September 17.

The stakedrop, which represents 5 percent of the $1.6 billion token supply, was calculated based on the proportional share of #ETH staked by participants.

10 million #EIGEN was allocated to liquid staking protocols, service providers, and blockchain developers, while 6 million EIGEN was allocated to open source code contributors and early adopters. Community members must verify their wallet addresses and social media accounts on the Eigen Foundation’s website by September 11 to benefit from the airdrop.

EigenLayer has experienced net outflows in recent months, losing significant amounts of its total locked assets (#TVL ). EigenLayer’s TVL has fallen from $20.1 billion to $11.5 billion since June.

EigenLayer’s competitor Symbiotic, which has yet to announce a token launch, has increased its TVL to $1.5 billion since its launch in June.
