★ INTRODUCING reALT ★

The restaked ALT token - 'reALT' - is here, ushering in Phase II of our staking program!

What is reALT?
reALT is an auto-compounding ERC20 share token that captures a user's ALT staking contribution & accumulates the compounding rewards earned.

How does it benefit our ecosystem?
With reALT, you can participate simultaneously in many pools to maximize exposure & choice and benefit from auto-compounding.

Once issued, redirect reALT to supporting launchpools like Xterio to earn additional rewards & secure MACH!

❗Important Note for Existing Xterio LaunchPool stakers❗ Enjoy seamless migration from Phase I-II of staking.

AltLayer will deprecate the existing Xterio LaunchPool & facilitate rapid migration to the reALT-powered pool.

We reset Xterio's Phase I LaunchPool cooldown period to 0 days, which will apply to all future LaunchPools.

The cooldown period for ALT staking will temporarily remain at 0 days, and on May 9 (7 days from now) it will be updated to 21 days.

📢 Restaked Rollup (MACH) Adds Support for Arbitrum One Mainnet

AltLayer’s fast-finality AVS 'MACH’ now supports Arbitrum One Mainnet! This major integration extends the power of Eigenlayer via restaked rollups to one of the most active L2 crypto ecosystems!

Users and dApps on Arbitrum One can now leverage MACH and benefit from (a) Faster finality with economic backing; (b) State verification with a shared security guarantee and (c) Faster interoperability.

AltLayer MACH also offers streamed access to rollup states/blocks for exchanges, bridges, explorers & other ancillary services in the Arbitrum ecosystem. By tapping into AltLayer MACH, these providers in the Arbitrum ecosystem can offer a faster service to the end users! 🔥

AtLayer MACH is proud to be the newest AVS supported by the Coinbase operator

Coinbase's engagement in EigenLayer and AltLayer's ecosystem, and their endorsement of AVS, will play a big role in bringing thousands more into the restaked rollups world, and ring in a new era for Ethereum 🌎

Welcoming you to delegate to Coinbase's operator using this guide: https://docs.cdp.coinbase.com/delegation/docs/eigenlayer-delegation/

To recap, MACH (fast-finality) is part of AltLayer's comprehensive AVS suite, designed to accelerate Ethereum and advance its mission. The others include VITAL (verification) & SQUAD (decentralized sequencing). Together, these act as a powerful engine to enhance rollup performance 🚀

MACH, which supports both ZK and optimistic rollups, provides fast confirmation for rollup transactions, crypto-economic security & support for different proof systems/runtimes. MACH can verify the validity of rolllup states in various modes ⚡

Staking plays a central part in securing our restaked rollup products. By leveraging Eigenlayer's restaking mechanism, the collateral deposited to secure MACH is then used to attest to the validity of rollups.

In turn, our trusted network of operators and supporters grow the AVS world.

INTRODUCING WIZARD 🪄
The world’s first AVS-as-a-Service platform designed to hyper-accelerate AVS adoption

AltLayer has introduced the first AVS-as-a-Service platform offering rapid AVS deployment and management for builders in the EigenLayer ecosystem. Called “WIZARD,” this platform empowers builders to leverage Actively Validated Services (AVSs) using templatized tools, creating a 10x faster and 100x easier experience than manual AVS deployment.

WIZARD features a sleek and simple UI/UX and offers services like faster finality, and bridges - helping hyper-scale AVS adoption without worry, and reducing deployment time from months to minutes!

With Wizard, we’ve made a big leap forward in growing and enriching the restaking ecosystem.
