Blockchain protocol #EigenLayer ($EIGEN
), focused on restacking in the Ethereum network, has failed to meet #investors ' expectations, Alex Obchakevich, founder of cryptoanalytics company Obchakevich Research, is convinced.
The researcher emphasized that EigenLayer attracted a lot of attention in its early days and received a whopping $64.5 million from venture capital funds. EigenLayer promised “innovations in liquid staking, providing high returns for users and reliability for investors,” but failed to deliver, Obchakevich emphasized.
He explained that users of the EigenLayer protocol expected significant profits from the placement of their assets, but in fact the amounts were many times lower than expected, which caused a lot of dissatisfaction. For this reason, the transparency of the project was questioned.
In addition, the community suspected insider trading and market manipulation after EIGEN tokens were sold for a whopping $2 billion after #listing on major crypto #exchanges .
Meanwhile, the EIGEN token has soared nearly 7% in the past 24 hours and is up as much as 15.45% in the past seven days. The crypto asset is now trading just 13.5% below its all-time high of $4.53.
