Introducing North Star: Our Next Major Release

LAT Introduction
Since our inception, EigenExplorer has been on a mission to serve Restakers, AVSs, and Operators — the core entities of the EigenLayer ecosystem. To date, EigenExplorer has served over 4 million requests and 10,000 clients with our data platform. As the EigenLayer ecosystem grows, we are expanding our product horizon beyond data to meet its evolving needs.Today, we are excited to introduce the Liquid AVS Token (LAT), an innovative asset class designed specifically for the EigenLayer ecosystem. LAT enables direct restaking into one AVS, automatic operator selection, and the use of liquid tokens for other DeFi activities. This new asset class promises improved utility, efficiency, and user experience. LAT allows users to directly support any AVS of their choice, fostering direct AVS community engagement and ensuring ecosystem longevity.The Liquid AVS Token testnet will be launched in mid-August 2024, while the mainnet is scheduled for release in September 2024. We invite you to join us on this journey as we introduce LAT and continue to enhance the EigenLayer ecosystem.

Additional API Routes and Usability Improvements

We’re excited to announce the addition of two new routes to the EigenExplorer API, Retrieve AVS Operators and Retrieve AVS Stakers. These routes allow developers to track the current operators and stakers associated with a specific AVS address. We are excited to see how the new endpoints will be utilized in the various AVS applications.Further enhancing the EigenExplorer platform, we’ve implemented significant usability improvements. Our redesigned error handling provides a top-tier developer experience, ensuring clearer and more actionable feedback. Additionally, we’ve enriched our API documentation with detailed examples and comprehensive response schemas, going the extra mile to support developers in integrating and leveraging our API effectively.
