Mike Silagadze is the Founder and CEO at ether.fi.
In this Quick Hit, we discuss the recent restaking mania on EigenLayer including how many of us are playing for the EigenLayer airdrop. Mike explains what is liquid restaking and the benefits of their new LRT (liquid restaking token) eETH which grew to over $ 100M in deposited ETH in less than 1 month since launching.

EtherFinanciers🧙♂️
TVL has crossed the important milestone of 100,000 ETH🛣️
This week, the protocol brought in over 35,000 ETH and spun up over 1,000 new validators in EigenLayer via Native restaking🔝
ether.fi is the LARGEST Liquid Restaking Protocol on Ethereum🏆
All this and other facts in our NoCap for the week👇
We have 23,051 unique holders of eETH, all helping to push the decentralization of Ethereum🛣️
All these holders will have a role in decentralized governance🏦
Paul Frambot is the CoFounder and CEO at Morpho Labs.
In this episode, we discuss the soon to be released Morpho Blue protocol, which promises to unlock a new foundation for DeFi lending. Morpho V1 is already the third largest lending platform on Ethereum with over $1B in deposited assets. However, the CoFounder of Morpho Labs explains why there are inherent limitations to the current DeFi lending landscape and how Morpho Blue (Morpho V2) will solve for this as a more trustless and efficient lending primitive with permissionless market creation.

Ether.fi is now a Top 50 protocol on #Ethereum, with more than $ 87M in TVL🚀
You can find the full recap for this week here👇
THE DUCKS FLY NOW ON THEIR OWN !
Our quackers got now their own collections !
COLLECTIONS The ducks will be categorized in two distinct collections :
-
Ducks Everywhere, collection of all ducks from the main collection, mostly who went through an auction (ERC-721)
-
Ducks Frens, collection of all ducks made in collab with our dearly fren communities (ERC-1155)
BOOKLETS Booklets have also been updated to fit better our duck world, now referred as "passports" or "ID's" !
Each duck receives its unique identity upon disassembly, represented by these identity NFTs, essential to rebuild your duck with the official metadata
Find now duck collections everywhere ! ➡️ linktr.ee/duckseverywhere
WHAT'S NEXT The next step for the ducks is now to find a home to hold auctions, and we can confirm that this is on the horizon. We will soon add #starky to the duck discord in order to have any duck holder joining the discord flock !
Stay tuned for potential actions in the meantime though !
🚨 BEWARE OF SCAMS 🚨
As many other projects on #Starknet, we can see scams and fake ducks flying on marketplaces. Always verify duck's metadata, check only ducks from the official collections and use the official links from linktree
A big qq to all duckies who have been patient enough to follow the flock until now, and also thanks a lot to #briqNFT for helping us fly along on our own now 💛
it's own duck platform or using an existing NFT one? (kwak kwak)
