+The Ethereum network secures billions of dollars of value 24/7, 365. How?
+
+People all over the world lock away (or “stake”) [ether (ETH)](/eth/) in smart contracts to run the software that processes Ethereum transactions and secures the Ethereum network. In return, they get rewarded with more ETH.
+
+Restaking is a technology built for [stakers](/staking/) to extend this security to other services, applications, or networks. In return, they earn additional restaking rewards. However, they also put their staked ETH at more risk.

+
+## What is restaking? {#what-is-restaking}
+
+Restaking is when stakers use their already-staked ETH to secure other decentralized services. In return, restakers can get additional rewards from those other services on top of their regular ETH staking rewards. 
+
+The decentralized services secured by restaking are known as "Actively Validated Services" (AVSs). 
+In the same way that many ETH stakers run Ethereum validation software, many restakers run specialized AVS software.

+    <strong>Good to know</strong><br />
+    While "Actively Validated Services" (AVSs) is the most common, different restaking platforms may use other names for the decentralized services they help secure, like "Autonomously Validated Services," "Distributed Secure Services," or "Networks."

+## Why do we need restaking? {#why-do-we-need-restaking}
+
+Picture two worlds; one with restaking and one without.
+
+ <TabbedSection />
+
+In this world with restaking, both the AVS and staker benefit from being able to find each other and trade security for extra rewards.

+

+
+## How does restaking work? {#how-does-restaking-work}
+
+There are several entities involved in restaking — each one of them plays an important part.
+
+| **Term**                | **Description**                                                                                                                                                                                                                   |
+| ----------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Restaking platforms** | A restaking platform is a service that connects AVSs, ETH stakers, and operators. They build decentralized applications for stakers to restake their ETH, and marketplaces where stakers, AVSs, and operators can find each other. |
+| **Native restakers**    | People who stake their ETH by running their own Ethereum validators can connect their staked ETH to a restaking platform, including EigenLayer and others, to earn restaking rewards on top of ETH validator rewards.                                              
+|
+| **Liquid restakers**    | People who stake their ETH via a third-party liquid staking provider, like Lido or Rocket Pool, get Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs) that represent their staked ETH. They can restake these LSTs to earn restaking rewards while keeping their original ETH staked.                    
+|
+| **Operators**           | Operators run the AVSs' restaking software, performing the validation tasks each AVS requires. Operators are usually professional service providers that guarantee things like uptime and performance. Like non-operator restakers, operators use staked ETH to secure AVSs, but operators also receive extra rewards in exchange for their work.                            
+|
+| **AVSs**                | These are the decentralized services — like price oracles, token bridges, and data systems — that receive security from restakers and offer token rewards in return.                                                              |
+
+<br/>
+
+<InfoBanner shouldSpaceBetween emoji=":bulb:">
+  <div>
+    <strong>Good to know</strong><br />
+    Native and liquid restakers often delegate their staked ETH to an operator, instead of running the software to secure AVSs themselves.<br />
+    This way they don’t need to worry about complicated technical requirements from AVSs, though they receive a lower reward rate than operators.
+  </div>

+
+## What are some examples of restaking? {#what-are-some-examples-of-restaking}
+
+While a novel idea, a few projects have emerged to explore the possibilities of restaking.
+
+<EigenLayer/>
+
+<CardGrid className="grid grid-cols-[repeat(auto-fill,_minmax(min(100%,_280px),_1fr))] gap-8">
+  <Card title="EigenPods" emoji=":money_with_wings:" >
+    A set of smart contracts that let ETH validators connect their staked ETH to EigenLayer's restaking system.
+  </Card>
+
+  <Card title="Marketplace" emoji=":earth_africa:" >
+    Making it easy for AVSs to find operators and stakers that meet their requirements, and vice versa.
+  </Card>
+
+  <Card title="Tooling" emoji=":hammer_and_wrench:" >
+    Developer libraries, documentation and codebases to integrate with and build DeFi protocols on top of EigenLayer.
+  </Card>
+</CardGrid>
+
+## Other examples {#other-examples}
+
+<RestakingList/>
+
+<br/>
+
+<InfoBanner shouldSpaceBetween emoji=":bulb:" isWarning>
+  <div>
+    <strong>Misnomer alert</strong><br />
+    Some people confuse “restaking” with lending and borrowing LSTs in DeFi. Both put staked ETH to work, but restaking means securing AVSs, not just earning yield on LSTs.
+  </div>
+</InfoBanner>
+
+## How much can I make from restaking? {#how-much-can-i-make-from-restaking}
+
+While AVSs offer different rates, Liquid Restaking Tokens (LRTs) like eETH give you an idea of how much you can make. In the same way you get LSTs like stETH for staking your ETH, you can get LRTs like eETH for restaking stETH. These tokens earn ETH staking and restaking rewards.
+
+**It’s important to acknowledge the risks with restaking. The potential rewards can be attractive, but they’re not risk free.**
+
+## What are the risks of restaking? {#what-are-the-risks-of-restaking}
+
+To truly appreciate the impact of Ethereum payments, it's worth comparing them to traditional fiat currencies:
+
+| **Risks**                     | **Description**                                                                                                                                                | **Risk level** |
+| ----------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------- |
+| **Penalties (or “slashing”)** | Like ETH staking, if restakers/operators go offline, censor messages or try to corrupt the network, their stake can be slashed (burned) partially or entirely. | LOW            |
+| **Centralization**            | If few operators dominate most of the restaking they could have a great influence on restakers, AVSs and even restaking platforms.                             | LOW            |
+| **Chain reactions**           | If a restaker gets slashed while securing multiple AVSs, this could lower the security for the other AVSs, making them vulnerable.                             | LOW/MEDIUM     |
+| **Immediate access to funds** | There is a wait time (or “unbonding period”) for withdrawing restaked ETH so you may not always have access immediately.                                       | LOW/MEDIUM     |
