[Omni Network and ether.fi sign a $600 million re-staking agreement to enhance security]
ether.fi will invest $600 million worth of Ethereum (ETH) to secure the Omni network and improve the security of the EigenLayer ecosystem. The total value of ether.fi is currently US$1.8 billion. The platform plans to hold a "Final Countdown" event on Monday, which may be related to the token airdrop.
This move is intended to enhance the security of the Omni Network, which is designed to enable low-latency, highly secure communication between Ethereum expansion solutions. Both Omni and ether.fi support EigenLayer's shared security model and will re-mortgage Ether on EigenLayer.
Omni has also whitelisted ether.fi’s liquidity token eETH and selected its node operators to perform its Actively Validated Service (AVS). Collateralized Ether will serve as a guarantee of security and asset stability.
The deal comes just days after ether.fi closed a $23 million Series A funding round, entrusting a third of its total assets there.
EigenLayer is a key project in the Ethereum re-collateralization ecosystem. Projects such as ether.fi and Puffer simplify the re-collateralization process and provide additional rewards as loyalty points, which can be exchanged for token airdrops.
Liquidity re-collateralization allows additional income to be earned on the original staked ether. ether.fi offers 3.92% earnings and loyalty points on EigenLayer. The liquid heavily collateralized market has grown dramatically since December, with EigenLayer’s total value increasing from $250 million to $10 billion.
ether.fi’s upcoming “Final Countdown” event may be linked to a governance token airdrop for heavily staked points.
Sreeram Kannan, founder of EigenLayer, expressed his expectation that Omni will provide fast interoperability and high encryption economic integrity as AVS on EigenLayer.
