Symbiotic org
Overview
Symbiotic is a permissionless restaking protocol that allows any ERC-20 token to be used as collateral to secure external networks, known as actively validated services (AVSs). It operates similarly to EigenLayer but is designed to be token-agnostic, enabling a wider range of assets to participate in restaking. The protocol focuses on modularity and decentralization.
