eigenlayer

I was disappointed to discover that only the 200 operators with the largest stake can participate in actually running EigenDA. I'd love to hear a take from @sreeramkannan or others in the know what role is envisaged for solo stakers I'm the EigenLayer ecosystem.

What with this and the lack of points premium for solo stakers, I'm left with the impression that small staker-operators aren't really seen as an important part of the EigenLayer ecosystem.

I’d be surprised if solo stakers don’t get an airdrop boost

Maybe. But I'm not convinced that Eigenlayer really wants solo stakers. I'd love to discover I'm wrong.

I was disappointed too, was looking forward to participating with the medium-tier hardware if able. However, there will be other AVSs. Justin Drake has an excellent video about what services may need solo stakers over large professional stakers.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNJ5Tj2VDUo solo stuff is toward the end.
