Why would users commit their ETH to Eigen? ➡ Enhanced yield By securing AVSs on Eigenlayer, restakers receive ETH yield and additional yield from AVSs, which incentivizes restaking to each AVS. Using an LRT gives way to additional rewards plus liquidity by "double dipping."

AVSs can be chains, networks, middleware, or applications. Prior to Eigenlayer, securing and properly distributing a decentralized system is a significant undertaking. Take, for instance, Bitcoin and Ethereum which took years to reach critical mass.
