What is EigenLayer

Eigenlayer makes it easy for innovators to collaborate with Ethereum's stakers and node operators. It enables multiple parties who do not trust each other to work together and create something meaningful.

Eigenlayer essentially grants a simple way to utilize Ethereum's 'decentralized trust' module, which promotes open innovation. This eliminates the need for protocols to develop their validator set and allows them to access Ethereum's computing and financial resources easily.
