What is EigenLayer?
EigenLayer enables ETH stakers to restake their ETH or LSD (stETH, rETH) to secure other apps on the network, earning additional rewards.
Users opt-in Eigen's smart contracts and stake to earn interest on top of the existing ETH POS interest.

Status of EigenLayer
The initial phase of the three-stage launch plan for EigenLayer's protocol, the Stage 1 Testnet, was unveiled by the company on the 6th of April, 2023.
This testnet is not incentivized. But you can try it now! 👀

POSSIBLE AIRDROP?
• Not likely, for now.
• They have not confirmed any airdrop.
• Testnet is not incentivized.
However, it usually is a good idea to be an early adopter in the crypto space. It might pay off! 🪂
Moreover, this is a testnet, so no capital is needed.
