Kraken Integrates In-House Ethereum Restaking via Eigenlayer

Kraken’s integration with Eigenlayer enables clients to restake ETH that has already been staked on the platform, offering additional opportunities to earn rewards. In the release shared with Bitcoin.com News, the process, which previously required more technical knowledge, is now available through Kraken’s in-house interface. Customers can restake their ETH to secure decentralized applications (dapps) on Ethereum, with potential rewards paid in native tokens or ethereum (ETH).

Restaking has gained prominence in 2024 as a way to boost security for dapps without needing additional tokens. However, Kraken claims, the feature has mostly been used by more advanced users. By introducing this functionality, Kraken believes it opens the door for less technically savvy users to participate in restaking, using its centralized platform to expand access to decentralized finance (defi).

Kraken’s subsidiary, Staked, will act as the validator for the ETH restaked through the platform. Users have the option to hold or trade their rewards within the Kraken ecosystem, adding further flexibility for investors. However, Kraken does disclose that the service is “not available in the U.S. and other geographic restrictions apply” to the restaking feature.
