@zmanian know of any protocols that *have* explored this design space in a (d)PoS redistribution-for-attributable-endogenous-faults context?

plenty of "coverage pool" experiments, but nothing comes to mind as a close comparable (TBTCv2 was close-ish)

Introducing the Eigen Economy

Eigen Labs is excited to announce the v1 launch of the Eigen Economy Dashboard: https://t.co/swN5OfI7oZ

This dashboard is an ongoing initiative to provide a transparent, legible, and real-time view of the key metrics that drive growth in the EigenLayer ecosystem.

Over time, the dashboard will evolve to encompass more key metrics relevant to the ecosystem.

Why

Legibility.

More than an ecosystem, we are collectively building an economy.

The Eigen Economy is the dense, complex, and incredible network of individuals and entities that work together to create and grow the EigenLayer community, platform, and overall ecosystem.

Whether you are a restaker, builder, partner, contributor, and/or EIGEN holder, you are an agent of the Eigen Economy.

[LAGRANGE @lagrangedev]

Join @ismael_H_R, @bcmakes and @chbpap tomorrow to discuss Lagrange’s ZK Prover Network, the recently announced Double Auction Resource Allocation (DARA) mechanism, and how we’re building better proving ecosystems together with @eigencloud ♾

📅 Nov 6 @ 12PM EST

Excited for the opportunity to work with the cracked team behind @RioRestaking:
@AlanJamesCurtis @bcmakes @calebtebbe @0xriogreen @_solimander_ @menzel_clayton @1_freddie_ @LukeHajduk
The team brings a depth of experience having built many products in crypto before: Radar Relay (defi), Radar Deploy (node software), Black Sands (validator company), Core Scientific (mining), and Nouns DAO.

@ASvanevik in theory, but in practice biohacking and other forms of "alternative medicine" have few wins to show for the efforts and risk
