EigenLabs

EigenLabs, founded in 2021 and headquartered in Seattle, is a blockchain infrastructure company focused on enhancing the trustworthiness of digital services. Their flagship product, EigenLayer, is a protocol built on Ethereum that introduces "restaking," allowing users to extend the security of their staked ETH to additional applications, thereby providing cryptoeconomic guarantees to various services. This innovation enables developers to build decentralized applications with enhanced security without launching new blockchains. In June 2025, EigenLabs launched EigenCloud, a platform designed to integrate trust and verifiability into both Web2 and Web3 applications, backed by a $70 million investment from a16z crypto. EigenCloud combines tools like EigenDA for data availability, EigenCompute for verifiable computation, and EigenVerify for dispute resolution, offering developers a comprehensive suite to build applications with blockchain-grade trust guarantees.
