According to BlockBeats, on July 27, the Ethereum re-staking protocol EigenLayer officially announced that it will soon launch AVS (Active Verification Service) rewards and EIGEN programmatic incentives.

‱ Active Validation Service (AVS) will gain the ability to reward stakers and operators.

‱ At least 4% of the total supply of EIGEN will be distributed to stakers and operators through upcoming programmatic incentives.

‱ These incentives will be distributed through “reward boosts” where stakers and operators will receive EIGEN in proportion to the amount of rewards allocated to them by AVS.

‱ Stakers and operators who support more AVS will tend to receive more EIGEN programmatic issuance.

‱ The rewards boost program is designed to kick-start the rewards flywheel and enable price discovery, even if AVS rewards are initially low.

‱ In addition to the programmatic incentive program, Season 2 staking rewards will reward current stakers and operators.
