We are thrilled to announce the launch of ARPA AVS Season 2 Community Rewards, marking another significant milestone in our commitment to reward our dedicated community. As a top 3 Attestation Verification Service (AVS) by the number of stakers, we continue to lead the way in innovation and community engagement within the EigenLayer ecosystem.

Building upon our pioneering efforts as the first-ever AVS — outside of EigenDA — to launch a rewards program through EigenLayer’s Programmatic Incentives system, Season 2 brings even more exciting opportunities for our restaking community. With a longer duration, increased rewards, and an inclusive reward structure that now benefits ARPA token holders, we’re reinforcing our commitment to fostering a robust and sustainable staking ecosystem.

Season 2 Rewards: Bigger, Better, and More Inclusive

Season 2 is designed to enhance the staking experience by offering more substantial rewards over an extended period. Here’s how we’re making Season 2 bigger, better, and more inclusive:

  • Extended Duration: With a 70-day duration, Season 2 offers a longer-term opportunity for our community to earn rewards.
  • Increased Total Rewards: The total reward pool has increased tenfold from Season 1 to 140,000 ARPA tokens, providing more substantial incentives.
  • Inclusive Reward Structure: For the first time, ARPA token holders can participate directly and earn rewards by staking their ARPA tokens on EigenLayer.

Reward Breakdown for Season 2

Duration: 70 days

Total Rewards: 140,000 ARPA

Distribution:

  • 50% (70,000 ARPA) allocated to ARPA restakers
  • 35% (49,000 ARPA) allocated to ETH/Liquid Staking Token (LST) restakers
  • 15% (21,000 ARPA) allocated to EIGEN restakers

This new distribution model not only continues to reward those who contribute to the security and stability of ARPA AVS but also brings ARPA token holders into the fold. By including ARPA restakers, we’re fostering a more inclusive and robust staking ecosystem.

We’re committed to building a strong restaking community and will continue to explore new opportunities and innovations. Thank you for your ongoing support.

About ARPA

ARPA Network (ARPA) is a decentralized secure computation network built to improve the fairness, security, and privacy of blockchains. ARPA threshold BLS signature network serves as the infrastructure of verifiable Random Number Generator (RNG), secure wallet, cross-chain bridge, and decentralized custody across multiple blockchains.

ARPA was previously known as ARPA Chain, a privacy-preserving Multi-party Computation (MPC) network founded in 2018. ARPA Mainnet has completed over 224,000 computation tasks in the past years. Our experience in MPC and other cryptography laid the foundation for our innovative threshold BLS signature schemes (TSS-BLS) system design and led us to today’s ARPA Network.

Randcast, a verifiable Random Number Generator (RNG), is the first application that leverages ARPA as infrastructure. Randcast offers a cryptographically generated random source with superior security and low cost compared to other solutions. Metaverse, game, lottery, NFT minting and whitelisting, key generation, and blockchain validator task distribution can benefit from Randcast’s tamper-proof randomness.
