The $sfrxETH restaking limit for @KelpDAO is now 20% full. EigenLayer unpause got pushed back to Feb 5th so you still have a few days to grab a spot and earn multiple airdrops. kelpdao.xyz/restake/?utm_s…

1/ As a @fraxfinance $sfrxETH holder, I have refrained from restaking... until now. That's because @KelpDAO is the first to offer liquid sfrxETH restaking, as @eigenlayer opens sfrxETH deposits Jan 29th. Here's why I'm trusting Kelp with my sfrxETH👇🧵

Flox aka Fraxtal Blockspace Incentives is designed in a way to draw activity and TVL to Fraxtal. Fraxtal WILL NOT be a one-time get-rich-quick airdrop. So for those thinking that FXS is sell the news on Fraxtal, think again. My view is Fraxtal launches -> TVL grows as dApps

"The Flox mechanism...is like a weekly airdrop & whatever dApp is the most popular gets a big amount of the points." This underscores the mechanism's goal to foster a sustainable ecosystem by rewarding SC gas usage, popularity (contract rank), & asset availability sampling.
