Renzo, an Ethereum staking protocol based on EigenLayer, announced the launch of Balancer Gauge. Currently, LP tokens can be staked on Balancer ezETH/WETH Gauge and unlock BAL rewards.

Multi-chain yield protocol Magpie has announced its integration with Ethereum re-staking protocol EigenLayer and the establishment of the SubDAO organization Eigenpie. It is reported that Eigenpie will provide re-staking services through EigenLayer's framework, and the main network will go live after auditing. In addition, Eigenpie will also launch governance and revenue-sharing token EGP.

On January 19th, it was announced that the full-chain collateralization protocol StakeStone will integrate EigenLayer's re-collateralization service and officially upgrade its Ethereum-based STONE token from a full-chain collateralization token (LST) to a full-chain re-collateralization token (LRT). The current total value locked (TVL) available for re-collateralization is over 700 million US dollars.

Ethereum re-staking protocol EigenLayer announced the introduction of three new liquidity staking tokens (LST) on January 29th at 12:00 noon Pacific Time:

After raising the LST limit, EigenLayer's total deposits have now exceeded $900 million. The modified limit has caused a surge in inflows, currently exceeding 410,000 ETH.

OKX DeFi now supports the Eigenlayer protocol. Users can now stake ETH to obtain staking certificates in protocols such as Lido, Swell, Rocketpool, Stader, etc. through OKX DeFi, and then stake the certificates to Eigenlayer for an additional annualized yield of up to 8%! EigenLayer is a re-staking protocol built on Ethereum that allows users to earn additional rewards using their locked ETH.OKX Web3 wallet's DeFi section is an all-in-one on-chain investment platform that has aggregated various investment products from 20+ public chains, 80+ projects, and 200+ protocols. It supports various convenient operations such as one-click cross-currency investment and automatic yield calculation, helping users improve fund utilization while saving on gas fees, making DeFi investment easier.

A spokesperson for EigenLabs, the developer behind EigenLayer, stated that Google Cloud has joined EigenLayer's "Operator Working Group" with over 65 other operators and independent participants. EigenLayer is a re-collateralization protocol that allows Ethereum to be collateralized on multiple platforms simultaneously. Google Cloud declined to comment on whether it plans to migrate to EigenLayer's mainnet or whether the protocol will be added to Google Cloud's blockchain node engine. EigenLabs cannot confirm whether Google Cloud will still be an operator once the node is running on the mainnet. The spokesperson stated that they expect Google Cloud to continue to provide support as the testnet is aimed at preparing for the mainnet deployment in the first half of 2024.

On November 23rd, AnkrETH will be integrated into EigenLayer as a collateral for Liquid Stake tokens (LST). It is reported that AnkrETH holders will be able to use their assets in the EigenLayer ecosystem, enhance the security of Ethereum, and participate in various DeFi applications supported by EigenLayer. By becoming a collateral token on the EigenLayer framework, Ankr's LST will benefit and pave the way for increased adoption of the Ankr platform. By enabling re-staking of ankrETH, or implementing the Liquid Restaking Tokens (LRT) solution, users will be able to earn rewards on two levels while maintaining liquidity.

EigenLayer has announced the launch of its second phase testnet, which mainly includes the following features:

October 16th, the non-custodial liquidity staking protocol ether.fi announced its decentralized roadmap on its social platform and will limit its market share. It promises to limit the number of validators and ETH self-restriction to less than 25% on the consensus layer of the protocol.
