EigenDA supports roll-up production traffic on mainnet
According to a recent blog post on the EigenLayer Blog, EigenDA is now supporting roll-up production traffic on mainnet. The platform allows anyone to deploy rollups and whitelist them in the free tier. If you plan to deploy rollups using EigenDA in the free tier, you will need to provide your client ETH address via the EigenDA contact form.
Introducing a dual quorum model
One of the business models discussed in the EigenLayer whitepaper is a dual-staking utility that features two quorums: ETH restakers and $AVS stakers. The blog post announced that the dual quorum model previously released on the Holesky testnet is now available on the EigenDA mainnet. Initially, EigenDA’s dual quorum starts with ETH as the first quorum and EIGEN as the second quorum. With this launch, EIGEN holders will be able to stake their stake in EigenDA operators, and EigenDA operators will be able to choose a dual quorum for EigenDA to enhance network security.
Following the stake drop claim on May 10th, EigenDA has now staked and delegated over 4 million EIGEN. The platform is also working to extend this multi-quorum model to allow EigenDA rollups to secure blobs by staking their own custom tokens.
Mainnet production traffic announcement
The blog post announced that EigenDA is now in its final stages of testing and hardening and supports production traffic for all rollups. Currently, EigenDA has over 230 operators and over 120,000 stakers delegating over 3.4 million ETH to secure the network. This move introduces the first alt-DA solution running in a production environment secured by re-staked ETH, and engages much of the EigenLayer cryptocurrency economic ecosystem, forming critical infrastructure for next-generation services and applications.
For a limited time, all rollups can use EigenDA for free with production L2-like throughput. We recommend that users contact the team to reserve bandwidth in advance and achieve performance beyond these speeds.
What’s next for EigenDA?
Loading the first rollup on the EigenDA mainnet is the next step in a multi-stage rollout towards the final stage for data availability in the Ethereum ecosystem. EigenDA offers numerous benefits such as hyper-scalability, cost flexibility, ease of integration, and native token staking.
