ELIP-005: Simplify and Enhance EIGEN and BackingEigen Tokens

Hi everyone – I’ve published ELIP5 https://github.com/eigenfoundation/ELIPs/pull/31 it’s ready for more thorough review!

This proposal introduces targeted changes to the EIGEN and BackingEIGEN (bEIGEN) tokens

This upgrade will enhance security, improve maintainability and observability, and reduce user gas cost, by:

  • simplify token logics and remove legacy transfer restrictions, which is essentially dead code
  • consolidate minting function from disparate locations in 2 token contracts, into a single source of truth in bEIGEN
  • add necessary events
