TVL watch: $16.2b
EigenLayer maintains a total value locked (TVL) of $16.2b according to DefiLlama.
AVS Rewards and EIGEN Programmatic Incentives
Soon AVSs will gain the ability to reward stakers and operators for their participation. An AVS can specify a time range for the reward, a relative weighting of LSTs and NativeETH for the reward, and an ERC20 token to make rewards in.
Additionally, EigenLayer will enable a programmatic incentives program, in which EIGEN will be distributed to stakers and operators of each AVS proportionate to the rewards distributed by each AVS. At least 4% of EIGEN’s total supply will be distributed through the program.
