Ethereum dev’s paid EigenLayer role sparks debate on ‘conflicted incentives’
adviser

Ethereum researcher Justin Drake said his EigenLayer role is worth “millions of dollars” and some think it could shake up incentives for those working on the blockchain.

An Ethereum Foundation researcher’s decision to take a paid adviser role for the foundation behind EigenLayer has sparked criticism on social media, with one commentator suggesting it could create “conflicted incentives.”

In a lengthy May 19 X post, Ethereum researcher Justin Drake disclosed he had taken an adviser role at EigenFoundation that “comes with a significant EIGEN token incentive” vested over three years worth “millions of dollars” and “more than the combined value of all my other assets.”

EigenLayer is a protocol that partially launched on mainnet last month and allows users to stake liquid staked Ether (ETH) tokens — which are derivative tokens for ETH staked in a protocol such as Lido — effectively allowing ETH to be staked twice.

With EigenLayer, restakers earn additional rewards, while developers get access to Ethereum’s robust security with less investment.

EigenLayer aims to eliminate a critical barrier many new DApps face by providing developers with an established security framework.

Ethereum has come a long way since its launch in 2015. It has held its position as the most influential blockchain, successfully transitioned from proof-of-work (PoW) to proof-of-stake (PoS), and is the foundation for many innovative crypto projects.

Protocols such as Lido and EigenLayer have been behind the DeFi TVL resurgence.

Decentralized finance total value locked (TVL) almost doubled in the first three months of this year compared to the previous quarter, partially driven by Ethereum liquid restaking initiatives, according to recent research. 

DeFi total value locked surged from a Q4 2023 low of $36 billion to peak at almost $97 billion in the first quarter of 2024, according to DefiLlama. Since the beginning of the year, it has increased by 81% to a two-year high of $98 billion last week.

Messari reported slightly higher TVL figures on April 18, noting that DeFi collateral increased by 65.6% quarter-on-quarter to reach $101 billion. However, it attributed this growth to the prices of the underlying assets increasing and liquid restaking.
