The highly anticipated Ethereum staking protocol EigenLayer has announced that it will launch its mainnet in multiple stages over the next few weeks. According to EigenLayer, the decision to deploy the mainnet in phases is to minimize protocol risks and optimize and stabilize network performance throughout the process. Specifically, the deployment of the EigenLayer mainnet will be executed in the following stages:
Final testnet: The final version of the EigenLayer testnet will be migrated to the Holesky testnet for operation.
Webapp and contract suspension: Withdrawal and deposit operations will be temporarily suspended to facilitate control over deployment and network access by operators, while ensuring a smooth transition of the network.
Gradual operator registration opening: This step will allow the development team to test performance and control capacity growth, ensuring network stability.
Launch of EigenDA: EigenDA will be the first Active Verification Service (AVS) launched on the EigenLayer infrastructure. EigenDA will provide high data availability for Rollups, with a target write throughput of 10MB per second upon launch. Operators will be able to choose to join EigenDA during this stage.
Completion of mainnet launch: The EigenLayer Webapp will be updated, including a new staker dashboard and operator search page. With the completion of this stage, staker delegations, deposits, and withdrawal functions will be re-enabled.
Emergence of the VS ecosystem: With the launch of EigenDA, the AVS ecosystem is expected to flourish on the EigenLayer mainnet.
The article does not mention any information regarding token issuance, and it is unclear whether there will be an immediate token release after the mainnet goes live.
