Eigen Labs is a dynamic and innovative team that provides crypto-economic security services for proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchain modules, such as rollups, bridges, oracles, and dApps. Eigen Labs is building the EigenLayer protocol to enable permissionless innovation on Ethereum. With EigenLayer, blockchain services can rely on Ethereum for security, making it possible for anyone to build innovative blockchain modules without large upfront capital costs. Eigen Labs is also building a data availability service on top of EigenLayer known as EigenDA, which will serve the critical need to provide critical liveness and security guarantees to scaling solutions such as rollups.
