Ethereum Foundation researcher Dankrad Feist announced that he will serve as an advisor to EigenLayer alongside Justin Drake

ChainCatcher news, Ethereum Foundation researcher Dankrad Feist stated on X that he recently decided to become an advisor to EigenLayer alongside Justin Drake, under the same conditions, joining in a personal capacity and not representing the Ethereum Foundation, with a focus on risk and decentralization. He mentioned that he has indeed received a large amount of tokens from EigenLayer, but does not believe this will change or affect his stance on the development of the core protocol.

He believes that if EigenLayer is developed by a highly trustworthy person, it will bring tremendous benefits to Ethereum. He trusts that the current leaders intend to do this and plan to hold themselves accountable for it. If he believes that this is no longer the case, he will not hesitate to speak out and/or resign.

Previous news, Ethereum Foundation core researcher Justin Drake tweeted that he has recently become an advisor to the Eigen Foundation. Although serving as an advisor can yield many EIGEN token rewards, he is prepared to terminate his advisory position at any time if the direction of EigenLayer conflicts with the interests of Ethereum, and he promises to reinvest all advisory income into valuable projects within the Ethereum ecosystem, whether through investment or donation.
