ELIP-017: Duration Vault Fixes
Summary of Feedback
-
General Support:
Protocol Council feedback on ELIP-017 is broadly positive and supportive. Reviewers agree that the proposal is appropriately scoped to resolve an acknowledged oversight in the original deployment of duration vaults. While this leaves the feature with no proactive token-level denylist, the council finds this appropriate for the permissionless nature of EigenLayer.

Audit
Certora conducted a security assessment; All findings were addressed.
-
Security:
Lack of proactive token-level denylist is noted and intentional.
-
Ecosystem Impact:
Expected to improve the usability of Duration Vaults by allowing their creation for LST tokens.
