🛡️ What's the big idea?
- Instead of every new project building its own security, they can borrow Ethereum’s security using EigenLayer.
- This:
1. Saves time and money.
2. Makes everything more secure.
3. Encourages innovation.

📦 Simple Oracle Example
- Let’s say you’re building a DeFi app that needs ETH prices.
- You need an oracle (a service that gives real-world data to the blockchain).

- Instead of:
1. Creating your own oracle from scratch
2. Or trusting a centralized one

- You can use EigenLayer:
1. Validators on Ethereum say, “Hey, I’ll help with your oracle.”
2. They use their already-staked ETH as a promise to behave.
3. They give ETH price data.
4. If they lie — they get slashed (lose ETH).
5. If they’re honest — they earn extra rewards.

Everyone borrows Eth security ,Eigen layer made it kinda simple
