Bitget Lists Eigen Layer (EIGEN) with 26,000 tokens in rewards

Victoria, Seychelles, 30th September, 2024 – Bitget, the leading cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 company, has announced the listing of Eigen (EIGEN) in its Innovation, LSD, ReStaking, and GameFi Zone, marking a significant addition to its growing list of tokens on the platform. Trading for EIGEN will be available accordingly on October 1, 2024 (UTC), while deposits are open. With the integration of Eigen into Bitget's ecosystem, users have an opportunity to engage with a dynamic and innovative project that is gaining traction in the decentralized finance (DeFi) landscape.

To celebrate the listing, Bitget has introduced a series of reward-based activities, allowing users to participate in the growth and development of the EIGEN token. The first initiative, the CandyBomb campaign, offers a total of 20,000 EIGEN tokens to users who deposit and trade during the seven-day promotion period. Participants will receive candies based on their net deposits and spot trading volumes, providing an engaging incentive for early adopters of the EIGEN token.

EigenLayer represents a significant advancement in Ethereum's ecosystem, introducing a unique approach called 'restaking.' This feature allows the reuse of ETH on the consensus layer, offering an innovative solution to extend cryptoeconomic security. By enabling ETH stakers—both native and liquid staking token (LST) holders—to opt into EigenLayer’s smart contracts, the protocol effectively enhances security for a broader range of applications within the Ethereum network. This mechanism not only promotes a more secure environment for decentralized applications but also offers stakers an additional avenue for earning rewards.

As a protocol that builds on Ethereum’s foundation, Eigen aims to enhance the staking experience, providing more flexibility and earning opportunities for users. This aligns with the broader trend of expanding DeFi capabilities and further integrating staking mechanisms into everyday blockchain activities. The restaking feature is expected to attract significant attention from those interested in maximizing the utility of their staked assets, thereby contributing to the protocol's growth and adoption.

By listing EIGEN, Bitget continues to support projects that aim to push the boundaries of decentralized finance, providing its users with access to assets that represent the next generation of blockchain development.
