EigenLayer's slashing testnet is now live, with a mainnet launch awaiting approval of ELIP-002. This upgrade aims to enhance security by introducing Unique Stake Allocation and Operator Sets for Actively Validated Services (AVS). Unique Stake Allocation allows restaking operators to minimize slashing risks by designating specific funds for single AVS tasks. Operator Sets enable AVS to organize operators and set slashing parameters. RedStone and Infura are among the first to join as AVS, with EigenLayer focusing on expanding its network and onboarding consumer crypto applications.
