EigenLayer has introduced a distinctive restaking model that enables individuals to deposit ETH and a variety of liquid staking tokens. These deposited assets are then utilized to safeguard external networks. This innovative shared security model is advantageous for third-party applications, also referred to as actively validated services, as it enables them to enhance their security by utilizing a communal pool of restaked ether. By adopting this approach, not only is security improved, but users are also encouraged to actively engage in the network.
