When it comes to "Restaking," many people think of EigenLayer on Ethereum. But in the Solana ecosystem, Solayer is taking on a similar role. It allows users to restake SOL or LSTs (like mSOL, JitoSOL), not only to earn additional returns but also to provide security for Endogenous AVS and enhance transaction priority.
The difference is that Solayer doesn't just 'transport' the concept but combines it with the hardware acceleration capabilities of InfiniSVM. This means that AVS is not only secure but can also enjoy underlying performance support of millions of TPS. This is particularly crucial for services with high-performance demands like transactions, AI, and payments.
In other words, Solayer is a Layer1 that maximizes both 'security' and 'performance.' Its vision extends beyond just a restaking protocol within the Solana ecosystem; it aims to be the next-generation financial infrastructure. Compared to EigenLayer, it emphasizes performance narratives more; compared to other Solana protocols, it operates at a lower layer.
