Solana’s progress towards restaking took a big step forward on Thursday. Infrastructure project Jito Foundation has published the codes of the network’s first staking and restaking program. Restaking theoretically allows blockchain networks to use the value of other staked assets as a form of collateral to ensure they remain honest.

Jito’s code, which has not yet been audited, should allow any protocol developing on Solana to build economical security provisioning for virtually any on-chain application or “active authenticated service” (AVS). Specifically, Jito’s code allows users to secure AVS using any crypto asset they choose.

Jito’s restaking model differs from the version popularized by EigenLayer on the Ethereum network, which limits collateral to only ETH, certain ETH derivatives, and the platform’s native EIGEN tokens.

“The flexibility and customization provided in this architecture will be particularly beneficial to AVSs, which are the most important customers of these systems,”Lucas Bruder, a contributor to Jito Network said.
