EigenLayer Restaking is a protocol that allows users to reuse their staked Ethereum to secure additional decentralized applications and services. This mechanism enables staked assets to serve a dual purpose, providing security to both the Ethereum network and other protocols. It allows for the accumulation of additional rewards by extending the utility of existing staked capital. Restaking enhances the economic security available to a broader range of applications.
Context
