EigenLayer will launch the penalty mechanism on the mainnet on April 17
According to ChainCatcher, the official news states that Ethereum's re-staking protocol EigenLayer will launch its slashing mechanism on April 17 on the mainnet. Active Verification Services (AVS) will be able to build verifiable, trustless applications; at the same time, operators and stakers need to take responsibility. Slashing is a way for PoS protocols to economically penalize a node or group of nodes for executing strategies that can be proven to differ from the given protocol specifications.
