Shared security is transforming how DeFi protocols secure themselves, moving from isolated models to a networked approach. Key protocols like EigenLayer, Symbiotic, and Babylon are pioneering shared security infrastructures that allow multiple protocols to leverage a common security layer instead of building their own. This improves capital efficiency and enables smaller networks to inherit security from larger ones. However, an aggregation layer is needed to coordinate security resources across different ecosystems efficiently. Inception is building this infrastructure to harmonize economic security across multiple networks and restaking models.

Symbiotic has launched with support from major industry players including MEV Capital, Chorus One, and RockX. These curators are developing specialized security frameworks on the platform. Key Discussion Points: - Future of shared security infrastructure - Curator and LRT (Liquid Restaking Token) roles - Integration possibilities with Ethereum and DeFi Join the technical discussion with Symbiotic and MEV Capital on March 27 at 4:00 PM UTC to explore these developments.

InceptionLRT announces attendance at ETHDenver 2025 (Feb 24-28) following a landmark year in 2024. Key achievements include: - Mainnet launch with Isolated LRTs and Native ETH LRT support - Expansion to 10+ chains with 57 new DeFi integrations - Launch of Flash Unstake module for instant withdrawals - UI redesign with Lite and Advanced modes - Strategic merger with Amphor Protocol ($222M TVL) - Launch of inwstETHs on Symbiotic ($48M TVL) Total platform TVL reached $120M in 2024. The team will be available at ETHDenver to discuss restaking innovations and future plans. [Event Details](https://www.inceptionlrt.com/blog/inceptionLRT-ethdenver-2025/)

Two significant EigenLayer developments have been announced: - Important updates to EigenLayer vaults are now available at [Inception's blog](https://www.inceptionlrt.com/blog/eigenlayer-update/) - The Eigen Foundation launched 'EigenLayer Unlocked' - a comprehensive educational initiative featuring 25 deep dives into the ecosystem. This series brings together leading builders to explore EigenLayer's capabilities and potential. The educational series aims to provide detailed insights into the EigenLayer ecosystem through collaboration with @therollupco and various industry experts.

Recent analysis reveals significant centralization in the restaking ecosystem: - 5 Liquid Restaking Tokens (LRTs) control ~60% of restaked assets - 10 node operators manage ~75% of all restaked assets - EigenLayer's TVL has grown over 600% in 2024 This concentration of power raises concerns about decentralization in the restaking sector. Industry experts are calling for discussions on power distribution mechanisms.

**Key Updates:** - Symbiotic's TVL is heavily concentrated, with 64.27% from wstETH - MEV Capital and Etherfi manage over $130M in vaults - Lido's TVL reached $26.98B, up 4.72% - 186,676 wstETH now on L2 networks (+0.63%) **L2 Distribution Highlights:** - Arbitrum leads with 85,595 wstETH - Optimism follows at 32,929 wstETH - Notable growth on zkSync (+96.19%) **Market Activity:** - Weekly trading volume up 18.76% to $1.14B - stETH APR at 2.80% - 28,160 ETH net unstaked

Symbiotic has launched a new restaking infrastructure that enables more flexible security delegation. Unlike traditional systems where restakers can only delegate to preset validation services, Symbiotic allows users to customize their exposure through curated vaults. Key features: - Restaking Curators manage node operator selection and risk monitoring - Vaults can be immutable or curator-managed - Built-in slashing protection and risk mitigation tools - 11 major curators including MEV Capital and Chorus One The InceptionLRT wstETH vault pioneers multi-curator functionality, dynamically rebalancing assets across the curator network while supporting instant deposits/withdrawals.

InceptionLRT expanded its ecosystem in October with several key developments: - Released 4 new Liquid Restaking Tokens (LRTs): inEIGEN, intBTC, insFRAX, and inslisBNB - Integrated with major DeFi platforms including new pools on Uniswap and Curve - Enhanced cross-chain capabilities with BNB Chain and Fraxtal bridges - Participated in Token2049 and ETH Dubai events - Launched Restaking Mania campaign for community engagement The platform continues to focus on improving yield opportunities and DeFi composability across networks.
