<p class="is-style-lead">Ethereum restaking protocol EigenLayer revealed its plan to airdrop free tokens to users in two phases and introduce a new staking security system.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>The native token, dubbed EIGEN, will debut with a total supply of 1.67 billion, and the Eigen Foundation will manage the rollout scheduled for next month. According to an April 29 <a href="https://www.blog.eigenlayer.xyz/eigen/" target="_blank" rel="">blog post</a> from Eigen Labs, 45% of this supply is designated for distribution.&nbsp;</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="eigenlayer-distribution-plan">EigenLayer distribution plan</h2> 
<p>The first category, labeled stakedrops, carries a 15% allocation and will reward stakers for locking up Ethereum (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/ethereum/" target="_blank" rel="">ETH</a>) on EigenLayer’s protocol. Per <a href="https://defillama.com/protocol/eigenlayer#information" target="_blank" rel="">DefiLlama</a>, users have stashed over $15.7 billion in the ETH restaking platform since its launch last June.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>Furthermore, the airdrop distribution will happen in two batches. The first batch, or season one, will share 5% of the total 15% stakedrop allocation based on a linear calculation factoring in the amount staked, time staked, and native restaking, to name a few.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>A <a href="https://twitter.com/eigenlayer/status/1785001011003920868" target="_blank" rel="">snapshot</a> for season one was taken on March 15, and eligible users can claim 90% of the airdrop by May 10. Season two will begin a month later, allowing stakers to collect the remaining 10% of the total 15% stakedrop allocation.</p>

<p>Additionally, <a href="https://crypto.news/crypto-startup-eigenlayer-funding-vc-downturn/" target="_blank" rel="">EigenLayer</a> will allow a 120-day window for season one claimants. The EIGEN token will be non-transferable at launch to promote community participation in governance. Still, eligible users can stake a share to secure <a href="https://crypto.news/?s=Eigen" target="_blank" rel="">EigenDA</a>, a data availability solution released as a complementary layer to the restaking protocol.</p> 
<p>The two other user categories in the platform’s distribution plan included 15% allocations earmarked for community initiatives and ecosystem developments, respectively.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>Early contributors will receive 25.5% of EIGEN’s total supply, while investors have rights to 29.5%. Both parties will have a three-year vesting schedule, and 4% of the holdings will unlock monthly over the last two years.&nbsp;</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="introducing-inter-subjective-forking">Introducing inter-subjective forking</h2> 
<p>EigenLayer is also set to introduce inter-subjective forking to tackle patterns that may escape instant on-chain detection. The crypto-economic security concept will bolster ETH restaking and address subjective faults to simplify activity for validators dealing with restaking transactions. </p>
