Injective and AltLayer Bring Restaking Security to EVM Applications

Injective is officially collaborating with AltLayer to create the first ever restaking security framework for on-chain inEVM applications. Starting now, inEVM can leverage the security of not only Injective but also Ethereum as a whole, bringing the security of over $400 Billion in assets to the world of inEVM.With this integration, inEVM is able to be more simultaneously Ethereum and Injective aligned than ever before, further merging two of the most vibrant L1 ecosystems to date.

Injective’s inEVM enables Ethereum developers to build applications that can uniquely leverage Injective’s blazing fast speeds and near zero fees while simultaneously achieving composability across the WASM and EVM world. In turn, this allows Injective to be the only L1 blockchain capable of unifying the interoperability of Cosmos with the speed of Solana and the developer access of Ethereum.

Together with AltLayer, Injective inEVM is introducing an entirely new design framework to bring to EVM transactions whereby on-chain state validation is carried out with a network of nodes with economic backing, which in turn ensures optimal security and reliability across the entire rollup stack.

What is AltLayer?

AltLayer stands at the forefront of rollup technology, offering a comprehensive suite of solutions designed to address the scalability challenges facing Web3 applications. Central to AltLayer's offerings is its novel product, 'restaked rollups', which supplement existing rollups with enhanced security, decentralization, and interoperability by leveraging the restaking mechanism.

AltLayer and Injective Bring Fast Finality to inEVM

Restaking based security aims to bring Ethereum security to inEVM and thereby applications built on inEVM.

This is achieved via AltLayer’s MACH framework via which a network of nodes is set up to perform state validation for the inEVM stack. Upon any detection of an invalid state, a governance proposal will be initiated on-chain to react to the invalid state. If the proposal is approved, MACH's circuit breaker mechanism will automatically halt inEVM's RPC service, protecting users from further malicious operations and enabling them to initiate the process of recalling the transaction altogether.

By doing so, inEVM can leverage the security of not only Injective but also Ethereum as a whole, bringing the security of over $400 Billion to inEVM.
