EigenLayer and Cartesi Team up on AI, DeFi for Mainstream Adoption

Leading Ethereum-based restaking protocol EigenLayer is teaming up with Cartesi – a modular blockchain protocol. The partnership aims to see core developers from both teams build innovative decentralized applications catering to mainstream users and accelerating adoption.

According to a press release shared with CryptoPotato, Developers, including those with traditional Web2 backgrounds, will have the chance to leverage the combined strength of Cartesi’s Coprocessor powered by Linux with EigenLayre’s restaking protocol.

Core devs from both teams will get in the trenches and ideate consumer-oriented dApps and new use cases. This will happen through an invite-only internal hackathon called Experiment Week #3, which will take place from February 10th to February 17th.

Speaking on the partnership, Felipe Argento, co-founder and advisor at Cartesi, said:

We saw so many mind-blowing projects built in the first two editions of Cartesi Experiment Week, and I’m beyond excited for what’s in store this time – especially with a giant like EigenLayer joining the fun!”

On the other hand, the Director of Developer Advocacy at EigenLayer, Nader Dabit, said:

We are thrilled to partner with Cartesi for this hackathon. Their Linux-powered rollups enable developers to build complex on-chain applications with familiar tools. This event will showcase the incredible potential of Cartesi’s technology to push the boundaries of what’s possible in Web3.”
