RiskLayer

RiskLayer operates in the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector, offering a consensus-based risk network that indexes risk per market and per asset. The company provides a plug-and-play environment secured by $15 billion of restaked ETH on EigenLayer, aligning economic incentives across DeFi. RiskLayer serves institutions and builders in Web3, enabling them to leverage a suite of SDKs and RaaS stack to develop economically secure DeFi applications. The business model involves earning revenue through staking ETH LSDs, participating in crypto coordination games, and providing risk feeds. Operators handle finality on DA and secure the underlying oracle network, while service providers stake and run statistical engines to assign risk feeds. RiskLayer democratizes app-specific risk feeds for Ethereum and Bitcoin, aiming to onboard the next billion users to crypto. The company makes money by offering economic security feeds for the application layer of crypto and rewarding participants in its ecosystem with RISK tokens.
