How to Restake with Renzo

Originally written on December 18, 2023

Renzo beta mainnet is live on 18th December 2023. The app allows users to deposit native ETH and get access to EigenLayer Restaked Points regardless of LST caps.

EigenLayer announced caps on LST restaking, however, native ETH restaking will remain uncapped. Typically, users need to set up and manage Ethereum validators and create EigenPods.

Renzo runs a distributed Ethereum validator infrastructure powered by Figment to enable unrestricted participation on Eigenlayer via native ETH restaking, abstracting away the infra setup.

Renzo users earn ETH staking yield, EigenLayer Restaked Points and Renzo points. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

Go to the following URL to access the dapp: app.renzoprotocol.com/restake
