Data block

Collection item

Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) has shown a strategic investment trajectory in EigenLayer, beginning with a $100 million Series B in February 2024 and followed by a $70 million EIGEN token purchase, reflecting long-term commitment to the project’s token-driven restaking infrastructure through its Crypto Fund IV
EigenCloud applies EigenLayer’s crypto-economic security to extend verifiability into sectors such as AI, healthcare and media, enabling offchain computation with onchain trust guarantees and supporting use cases where correctness and trust are critical
EigenLayer leads the restaking ecosystem and differentiates itself from competitors like Celestia, Story Protocol and Optimism by unifying data, compute and dispute resolution into a single trust layer, adopting a cloud-native, full-stack model rather than traditional blockchain tooling
Financial services firm Securitize plans to use EigenCloud to verify asset pricing data for BlackRock’s $2 billion BUIDL tokenized fund, representing one of the platform’s first enterprise-grade implementations
