Disclosures

Eigen risk

This material is for informational purposes only and is not exhaustive of all risks associated with trading Eigen. All crypto assets are risky, there are general risks in investing in Eigen. These include volatility risk, liquidity risk, demand risk, forking risk, cryptography risk, regulatory risk, concentration risk & cyber security risk. This is not intended to provide (i) investment advice or an investment recommendation; (ii) an offer or solicitation to buy, sell, or hold crypto assets; or (iii) financial, accounting, legal or tax advice. Profits may be subject to capital gains tax. You should carefully consider whether trading or holding crypto assets is suitable for you in light of your financial situation. Please review the Risk Summary for additional information.

Investment Risk

The performance of most crypto assets can be highly volatile, with their value dropping as quickly as it can rise. You should be prepared to lose all the money you invest in crypto assets.

Lack of Protections

Crypto assets are largely unregulated and neither the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) nor the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) will protect you in the event something goes wrong with your crypto asset investments.

Liquidity Risk

There is no guarantee that investments in crypto assets can be easily sold at any given time.

Complexity

Investments in crypto assets can be complex, making it difficult to understand the risks associated with the investment. You should do your own research before investing. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Concentration Risk

Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Putting all your money into a single type of investment is risky. Spreading your money across different investments makes you less dependent on anyone to do well. A good rule of thumb is not to invest more than 10% of your money in high-risk investments.

Five questions to ask yourself

  1. Am I comfortable with the level of risk? Can I afford to lose my money?
  2. Do I understand the investment and could I get my money out easily?
  3. Are my investments regulated?
  4. Am I protected if the investment provider or my adviser goes out of business?
  5. Should I get financial advice?

DeFi tokens

Decentralised Finance ("DeFi") tokens are crypto assets built on decentralised blockchain technology for financial applications or protocols. Risks linked to DeFi tokens include:

Enterprise Risk

Interactions between multiple DeFi protocols create a situation where a vulnerability or breakdown in one protocol can trigger a cascading effect, affecting other interconnected platforms.

Technology Risk

DeFi protocols frequently depend on external data sources or oracles, and any tampering or inaccuracies in these data streams can result in a lack of trust and reliability in the protocols.

Regulatory Risk

Governments and regulatory bodies around the world can introduce new regulations or ban certain aspects of the cryptocurrency market, affecting its legality and viability, which could affect token liquidity and/or value.

Legal Risk

Certain tokens may be used for operating a decentralised exchange platform which may contain additional risks:

  1. The platform may allow users to participate who have not been vetted or verified and therefore expose the possibility that users are interacting with sanctioned entities.
  2. The platform may be accessible in jurisdictions where some or all the exchange activity should be regulated. If a local regulator deemed the platform activity to be in breach of local regulation, they may request cessation or termination of the service which could affect token liquidity and/or value.

Market Risk

Given their novelty, the evolving technology involved and lack traditional asset structure, valuing crypto assets can be very difficult or impossible. This means valuations are determined by demand that is at risk of manipulation in various ways.

On Outpacing Legacy Players As DeFi enters its next stage of maturity, the bar has risen. The infrastructure & workflows that underpin financial primitives are mission-critical. Without them, the system risks fragility at scale. At the same time, the Web3 landscape has evolved dramatically. What began as Ethereum-centric has fractured into a multi-chain world of L2s & alt-VMs alongside the rise of the app-chain thesis. In this environment, a 'one-size-fits-all' oracle model simply doesn’t work. Configurable & flexible service delivery is essential to navigate this trajectory, where each ecosystem or application carries its own unique demands. This is precisely where RedStone carves out its value proposition: a modular, secure & builder-first oracle designed to support both the app layer and ecosystem layer → designed to adapt to complexity, not constrain it. These are all made possible from its set of unique technical edges that boils down to these: 🔸 Reliable + Optimised Data → RedStone uses gas-optimised off-chain validation secured by @eigenlayer's AVS for efficient, crypto-economic reliability. 🔸 Modular Architecture → Its framework integrates seamlessly across ecosystems w/ flexibility to support even the most niche app workflows. 🔸 Latency Advantage (with Bolt) → Delivers sub-2.4ms updates, the fastest push oracle in DeFi redefining real-time feeds while remaining AggregatorV3 compatible. 🔸 Proven Stability → In the $2B liquidation cascade of Feb 2024, RedStone pushed 119k updates (30% more than Chainlink) proving unmatched reliability in crisis. 🔸 DeFi + Risk Intelligence → With Credora integration, RedStone provides real-time strategy ratings that make lending markets safer, smarter + more transparent. This positions RedStone as not just another data pipeline, but a critical coordination layer for DeFi. -------- The Variate Oracle Landscape & Why Modularity Wins In a fast-moving, fragmented landscape, the only models that endure are those that combine adaptability with economic viability. Contrast this with how legacy players operate: ♦️Chainlink pioneered the space and powered early DeFi, but its monolithic push-only design has become a constraint. Even today it supports only a limited set of EVM chains w/ costly redeployments needed for each new ecosystem. ♦️Pyth advanced the pull model, pushing cost-efficiency + fresh perspectives but its reliance on Wormhole for cross-chain delivery introduces a single point of failure. *With no push support, it’s incompatible with DeFi’s dominant AggregatorV3 standard, while its dependence on third-party data providers bottlenecks flexibility. RedStone breaks this dichotomy with it’s dual-flexibility architecture → delivering both push & pull models with modular customisation for a wide variety of sector primitives spanning from RWAs, yield-bearing stablecoins, LRTs & Bitcoin PoR feeds etc. Unlike legacy oracles, RedStone’s architecture is: 🔹 Configurable → Adaptable to the unique needs of each protocol and ecosystem. 🔹 Efficient → Gas-optimised validation off-chain with on-chain verification only where needed. 🔹 Secure → Backed by RedStone AVS on @eigenlayer , which introduces decentralised heterogeneous crypto-economic collateral ( $RED + $EIGEN) for institutional-grade reliability. The mission goes beyond just ‘delivering asset prices’, but rather value-add in facilitating partners implement E2E workflows that didn’t exist before, without ever compromising on security. Not surprising, 170+ teams across 110+ chains already rely on RedStone, securing $9B in TVS by Sept 2025 as the fastest growing oracle. -------- On Adapting to Structural Tailwinds + Evolving Requirements The 2022–2024 cycle saw DeFi proliferated into a multi-chain world: L2s, alt-VMs, Solana, Sui, Aptos, TON, Monad, MegaETH & more… It's clear that the ‘Ethereum-only’ oracle model became a bottleneck, and RedStone filled that gap with modular design, first-mover integrations & rapid execution. This was what made RedStone is now the second-largest multi-chain oracle provider, scaling faster than any competitor. But support is only half the story. The other differentiator is robustness where oracles aren’t just feeds; they’re lifelines where failure is not an option. The existing partner list makes that significance clear: 🔹$3B TVS secured for Sky’s @sparkdotfi lending protocol 🔹Powering the largest DeFi players like @pendle_fi @MorphoLabs @ethena_labs 🔹Robust RWA feeds for @CoinDesk Indices (SOFR & CESR) + comprehensive institutional support for @CantonNetwork This places RedStone not just as an institutional-grade DeFi enabler, but as a frontrunner at the edge of TradFi convergence happening rn. And RedStone hasn’t stopped there. Over time, it has delivered tailored implementations for the most demanding use cases: 1️⃣ RedStone Atom → Enables realtime liquidation-aware pricing with ~300ms response times + native OEV capture routed back to protocols. *Unlocks higher LTVs, tighter risk parameters, and better yields. 2️⃣ HyperStone →A tailored standard designed to support both @HyperliquidX HIP-3 builder-deployed perps + HyperEVM’s 50 active feeds, integrating directly with HyperCore’s architecture (something no legacy oracle could achieve). 3️⃣ @CredoraNetwork Integration → Expands RedStone into a vertically integrated DeFi intelligence layer, embedding real-time risk ratings for strategies + assets with niche, smart oracle support. Together, these are proof points that RedStone adapts to structural shifts faster than anyone else. It’s clear that RedStone’s positioning is slowly evolving from a service provider to an adaptive infrastructure partner, tailoring solutions that move in lockstep with DeFi’s complexity & paving the way for institutional trust at scale. -------- On Value-Accrual: The RedStone Flywheel Infrastructure scale translates directly into tokenomics. $RED token is designed as the economic backbone of this oracle stack where it accruals from three main sources: 🔹Security → $RED staking backs RedStone’s AVS, tapping into EigenCloud for additional shared security. 🔹Rewards → Stakers earn from oracle usage fees across 110+ chains, plus EIGEN rewards via EigenPie. 🔹Sustainability → Unlike inflationary subsidies, value accrues as usage scales, making it the first genuinely sustainable oracle token model. This framework creates a strong foundation for value capture. And when you compare TVS/FDV ratios across the oracle sector, the asymmetry becomes obvious: • Chainlink: 4.1 • Pyth: 5.0 • API3: 6.7 • RedStone: *21.7 While TVS-to-FDV ratio is just an indicator, the drastic difference imo serves as clear signal that fundamentals far outpace current valuation. And that’s the thing about establishing deep technical performance and protocol-wide fundamentals: the value doesn’t just grow linearly, it compounds exponentially where each new integration reinforces the network, amplifying adoption across the stack. This creates a self-reinforcing flywheel in motion: Distribution & Trust → Widespread Adoption → Deeper liquidity & reputation → More secured TVS → attracts developers & institutions. Notably, with growing ecosystem utility + formalised trust from major players, RedStone is transitioning into a role that goes beyond standard oracle services toward niche, industrial-grade developments & initiatives. These expansions not only broaden use cases but also deepen the level of accreditation across the industry. And as DeFi expands horizontally into new frontiers RedStone’s modularity positions it as a definitive oracle + data layer to power the next wave of growth. -------- Final Thoughts RedStone has proven what a builder-first oracle looks like with modularity, speed, reliability & security combined to meet industrial standards. This is what is needed to power high stakes primitives. If DeFi is to scale into a global financial system and transition into broader adoption alongside TradFi convergence, the oracles that matter will be the ones that can keep pace. That’s exactly what RedStone stands for, and where it will continue to excel.

Dive deeper into Eigen

EIGEN is a universal intersubjective work token within the EigenLayer protocol. It's called an "intersubjective" token because it's designed to address intersubjective faults in a network. These are faults where there's consistent agreement among the majority of network participants that a malicious act has been committed. As a result, EIGEN helps to secure the network by discouraging inconsistent behaviors.

The EigenLayer protocol allows stakers of ETH, the native token of the Ethereum network, to extend the network's security to other applications across the EigenLayer network through a novel concept known as restaking. Here, ETH stakers can restake their tokens to secure other protocols built on EigenLayer, without the need to build a separate validator set.

How does EIGEN work?

Where ETH is used to secure services or protocols, EIGEN helps to address intersubjective faults that deserve a penalty by introducing intersubjective staking. In this situation, stakers who act outside of the network's rules can be penalized through slashing. Slashing sees individuals lose a quantity of their staked ETH. According to the project, through this approach, the EIGEN token allows the token to be forked without forking the Ethereum mainnet consensus.

EIGEN is also used to secure EigenDA, a data availability layer that supports Ethereum rollups.

Price and tokenomics

Season one of stakedrop claims for the EIGEN token opened on May 10, 2024. Here, 6.05% of the token's total supply of 1.67 billion EIGEN were made available to eligible users. Season one phase two of the stakedrop launched in June 2024, and made a further 0.7% of the total token supply available. According to the project, future seasons will see a further 1.5% of the total EIGEN tokens released.

Alongside the 15% of tokens allocated to stakedrops, 15% will go towards community initiatives, with 15% allocated to ecosystem development. A further 29.5% will be allocated to investors, with 25.5% assigned to early contributors.

All tokens allocated to investors and core contributors will remain fully locked up for one year after the date on which the token first becomes transferrable for the community. After this date, the EIGEN tokens allocated to investors and core contributors will be unlocked at a rate of 4% per month. This means EIGEN held by investors and core contributors won’t be fully unlocked until three years after the date the tokens first become transferable for the community.

About the founders
