EigenLayer removes collateralization limit
On the early morning of the 17th, the liquidity collateralization protocol EigenLayer announced the removal of the deposit limit for all Liquid Staking Tokens (LST).
Users will now have unlimited access to EigenLayer’s 11 existing liquidity collateralization token pools. The official statement emphasizes that the removal of the LST limit signifies a new phase for the EigenLayer ecosystem.
Previously, EigenLayer proposed setting the reward limit for any single LST (or user) at 33% to ensure ecosystem balance and decentralization.
