wrote a long reflection on restaking (2nd tweet). you probably won’t read it all, so i asked ai to turn it into a song. hope you get some useful insights from our chapter 1. what didn’t land: • we picked a niche market that moved slower and was smaller than we expected • we stayed quiet during the regulatory fog and let narratives run ahead of us • early AVSs diluted the brand and pulled us into noise • we focused on the perfect design and shipped slower what went well: • we proved we can win in brutal, crowded markets • eigenda powering ethereum's most ambitious builders • massively accelerated preconf • we kept billions secure with real operational discipline • we prevented more ethereum infighting around lido 33% • we got clarity on where the actual frontier is where we’re going: • putting EIGEN at the center of the system • letting developers build verifiable applications, not just AVSs • going deep on AI agents with EigenAI, EigenCompute, EigenDA • building a cleaner, transparent story around stake, yield, and real risk hope you enjoy the emo song or the read.
