Inception empowers curators to create vaults that define how and
where assets secure networks, shaping reward structures across DeFi.
Distributed Risk
By fostering asset distribution across curators, Inception reduces
central points of failure and enables risk-adjusted participation in network security.
Scalable Security
Inception unifies curated vaults across Symbiotic into a modular
layer, making security strategies composable and scalable.

Staking is the process of locking up your crypto assets to help secure a blockchain
network and support its operations such as validating transactions. In return, you earn rewards,
typically in the form of more tokens. It’s a key part of many proof-of-stake blockchains and a way to
put your assets to work.
What is Restaking?
Restaking is a revolutionary concept that allows you to leverage your already-staked
assets (through Liquid Staking Token - LSTs) to provide additional security and validation capabilities
to other networks and services.
Staking vs Liquid Staking vs Liquid
Restaking vs Restaking
Staking: Locking up your tokens in a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) network to help secure
it and earn rewards.
Liquid Staking: Staking your tokens while receiving liquid staking tokens (LSTs)
that represent your staked assets and can be traded.
Restaking: Using your staked tokens to provide additional security and validation
services to other networks, earning rewards.
Liquid Restaking: Combining liquid staking and restaking to maintain liquidity
while maximizing rewards by restaking across networks.
What is shared security, and why is it
important?
Shared security allows networks to inherit economic security from Ethereum or other
ecosystems, reducing fragmentation and increasing decentralization. This model helps new or smaller
networks scale without building their own validator set, improving overall blockchain security.
What is restaking curation, and why does
it matter?
Restaking curation is the process by which curators design and manage vault strategies that determine
how and where economic security is allocated. This promotes decentralization, improves risk
distribution, and creates a competitive landscape that makes rewards more competitive across the
landscape.
What is the difference between
Eigenlayer and Symbiotic?
While both aim to build shared security infrastructure for Ethereum, EigenLayer relies on restakers
delegating to operators or LRT protocols, who choose which networks to secure. Symbiotic, on the other
hand, introduces permissionless Curator Vaults, giving curators the power to shape allocation and
network alignment, enabling greater flexibility and decentralization.
