Egan Layer - The Ethereum Trust Network
Sreeram Kanan is an associate professor at the University of Washington Seattle around the UW blockchain research lab. Egan layer is a mechanism that we have designed which allows the Ethereum trust network to be flexibly used to build general distributed systems. The way we achieve it is by supplying the trust from the stakers, stakers stake to commit to producing Etherum blocks but can also re-stake, re-use the same stake to do other things.
