Step-by-Step Checklist

Acquire LSTs

Stake ETH to get stETH (Lido), eETH (Ether.fi), or rETH (Rocket Pool). Or use native ETH restaking directly.

Deposit on EigenLayer

Go to app.eigenlayer.xyz and deposit your LSTs into the restaking contract. Points begin accruing immediately.

Delegate to an operator

Choose an operator running AVS services. Delegation is required for points to accrue.

Hold and accumulate

Points accrue daily based on deposit size. Larger deposits and longer holding periods increase your allocation.

Track on FarmDash

Connect your Ethereum wallet on farmdash.one to see your restaking position value and estimated points.
