BounceBit vs. Ethereum EigenLayer: Leading the CeDeFi Frontier
While Ethereum’s EigenLayer helped popularize restaking, BounceBit goes beyond by incorporating BTC staking and advanced CeDeFi features. In 2026, BounceBit’s tools—like Liquid Custody Tokens, dual-token staking, and real-world asset strategies—give it a clear advantage in both functionality and regulatory compliance.
Unlike EigenLayer, which mainly focuses on Ethereum restaking, BounceBit’s cross-chain approach broadens its appeal. The integration of BTC adds liquidity and trust layers that position BounceBit to potentially outpace competitors, especially as regulations increasingly favour hybrid DeFi infrastructures.
