13 Sep 2024EigenLayer as a verifiable cloud: the AVS model explainedExplains EigenLayer as a cloud for programmable trust: it accumulates stake and lets anyone rent security on demand, giving rise to AVSs. Lists oracle, DA, ZK proving, interop and rollup coordination AVS categories.ExplainerEthereumDeFi55 likes

28 Apr 2024Aligned Layer: scalable ZK proof verification on EigenLayerExplains Aligned Layer as a SNARK-agnostic verification layer using restaking and proof aggregation, since verifying proofs directly on Ethereum is slow and costly. Union uses it for Groth16 proofs; it went from a $2.6M seed to a $20M Series A in 10 days.BreakdownZKEthereum88 likes
