EigenLayer, the resharding protocol, launched its slashing testnet on December 20th, and its mainnet launch is subject to ELIP-002 approval. This upgrade will introduce Unique Stake Allocation and Operator Sets for Actively Validated Services (AVS) for node operators.

Ether, staked on Ethereum L1, serves as collateral in blockchain ecosystems. Unique Stake Allocation increases security by putting operators at risk for a single AVS. Operator Sets allow AVSs to organize operators.

EigenLayer is expanding the AVS community; companies like RedStone and Infura are joining the network. What do you think about these developments from EigenLayer? Let’s discuss in the comments.
