Area leverages EigenLayer’s native smart contracts deployed on Ethereum, minimizing implementation risks and ensuring security for users.
Restaking with Area is designed to be simple and seamless — just a few clicks, and the smart contracts handle the rest.
1

Choose Your Desired AVS

Select the AVS you want to support from the list available on Area, then click the “Restake” button. This action starts your participation in the chosen AVS.
2

Automatic Operator Delegation

This step is fully managed by Area’s smart contracts — no action needed on your part!
Operator selection happens automatically. Your restaked tokens are routed to the selected AVS operators through a process that prioritizes yield and AVS exposure.
3

Receive Liquid AVS Token (LAT)

Once staked, you’ll receive Liquid AVS Tokens (LAT) as an on-chain representation of your position. LAT reflects both your staked amount and the rewards it will generate.
4

Unstake or Trade Your LAT

To exit your position, simply trade your LAT on any supported exchange or unbond directly through Area to redeem your original staked tokens along with any accrued rewards.
