Guide to restaking and liquid restaking tokens (LRTs) — EigenLayer, restaking mechanics, operator selection, risk analysis, and the restaking ecosystem. Use when explaining restaking concepts, evaluating LRT protocols, or helping users understand EigenLayer and AVS security.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Restaking Explained
Restaking is a new DeFi primitive that lets you use already-staked ETH to secure additional protocols. This guide covers the mechanics, risks, and ecosystem.
## What Is Restaking?
### Traditional Staking
```
You → Stake 32 ETH → Ethereum Validator → Earn ~3-4% APY
(Securing Ethereum consensus)
```
### Restaking
```
You → Stake ETH → Ethereum Validator → Earn ~3-4% APY (Ethereum)
↓
→ Opt into EigenLayer → Earn +1-5% APY (AVS rewards)
(Now also securing additional protocols)
```
Your staked ETH simultaneously secures Ethereum AND other protocols (called AVSes — Actively Validated Services). You earn rewards from both.
## EigenLayer: The Restaking Protocol
### How It Works
1. **Deposit**: You deposit ETH, LSTs (stETH, rETH), or EIGEN tokens
2. **Delegate**: You delegate to an operator (or run your own node)
3. **Operator enrolls in AVSes**: The operator validates for additional protocols
4. **Earn rewards**: You earn Ethereum staking + AVS rewards
5. **Slashing risk**: If operator misbehaves, your stake can be slashed

How to install
mdr add nirholas/three.ws/restaking-explained@sha256:f5322417ceab2171The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260501.87cefc9, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
