Been diving into EigenLayer AVS lately, sharing my super general and practical understanding of what is it for:

* You have some task – like a piece of program, request, onchain action etc. It produces an output.
* You need to prove to a skeptical 2nd party that it’s correct and truly came from that task.
* Here comes a network of machines (AVS), that can re‑execute the task, confirm the result, and get paid for it.
* The 2nd party can cryptographically verify that machines really did this job.
* But what if some of these machines were malicious?
* That's staking comes in – machines put their money to join the network, earn rewards, but risk penalties for bad behavior.

EigenLayer essentially creates a marketplace for computational trust. But another practical question that comes up to me: what are the actual things you’d want to verify with this?

One of the many reasons I love Farcaster:

My brain dump I thought might be too technical and no one would read ends up getting high engagement and lots of thoughtful comments

I appreciate your to the point questions. Just considering what information / activity is actually valuable enough to verify through a third party is pretty insightful.
