Wu said that the Ethereum restaking protocol EigenLayer has released its second EigenLayer Improvement Proposal (ELIP-002) and introduced a penalty mechanism (Slashing). This proposal introduces a penalty mechanism to the EigenLayer protocol to enhance cryptoeconomic commitments and provides tools for AVS (Active Validation Services) to innovate and reward high-quality service operators. The penalty mechanism designed in the proposal integrates two new concepts proposed by Eigen Labs: Unique Stake and Operator Sets, allowing AVS to penalize operators for unmet commitments (such as computation errors or activity issues). Unique Stake ensures that each AVS has exclusive access to specific punishable stakes, reducing systemic risk. Operator Sets allow AVS to segment tasks and operators for better accountability mechanisms and reward distribution.
