- This layer of protection may take the form of an ECDSA authentication.
- EigenLayer is eyeing EigenDA with permissionless payments for blob throughput.
For the EigenDA data-availability service on the Ethereum mainnet, EigenLayer has implemented a whitelist security feature to protect it against Sybil and distributed denial of service attacks. This layer of protection may take the form of an ECDSA authentication using either an IP address or an Ethereum address.
The security mechanism uses ECDSA authentication based on the user’s IP address and/or Ethereum address. By using this security mechanism, EigenLayer aims to safeguard its service and ensure its accessibility to all customers.
More Throughput on Demand
The current free tier exceeds the prevailing requirements for Ethereum’s busiest rollups, with a throughput of up to 768KB each 10-minute session. Take the popular rollup Base as an example; it uses less than 2 blobs every 10 minutes, which means that EigenDA’s free tier is more than enough for current needs.
Also, partners may request more throughput than what’s available in the free tier using EigenDA. Interested parties may collaborate closely with EigenDA to satisfy their data requirements via the platform’s partner registration page. Supporting a wide range of applications and developments, this flexibility guarantees that high-throughput use cases may be met.
With peak throughputs measured on the mainnet reaching 10 MB/sec, EigenDA is capable of generating synthetic loads of 0.6 MB/sec. Because of its scalability and large capacity, EigenDA is an excellent fit for Ethereum’s data availability needs.
Additionally, EigenLayer is aiming to deliver EigenDA with permissionless payments for blob throughput before the year’s end. With this function, customers may secure bandwidth at a predetermined rate, which is ideal for situations when throughput needs are high.
