Key Features of the Restaked Rollup
- Decentralized Sequencing:
- The Restaked Rollup aims to decentralize the Sequencer network by redistributing MEV activities.
- Fast Finality:
- Enhances the speed of transaction finality, ensuring quicker and more secure confirmations.
- Optimized Profit-Cost Structure:
- Restructures the profit-cost model for proof posting and Data Availability (DA) services.
Benefits and Implementation
- Risk Distribution:
- With EigenLayer's current Restaking services, risks are distributed, lowering capital barriers for chain validation activities.
- Integration of Restaked Services:
- These services are integrated into the Restaked Rollup model to offer solutions for creating custom networks.
- Convenient Network Deployment:
- Collaboration with AltLayer’s Rollup as a Service facilitates faster and more efficient deployment of custom networks.
Recent Developments
On December 20, EigenLayer expanded its Restaking cap for Liquid Staking Tokens, quickly attracting $1 billion in total value locked (TVL) into the platform.
