Renzo is a restaking DeFi platform based on EigenLayer, aimed at simplifying the Ethereum restaking process and providing higher yields. After users deposit ETH, Renzo mints an equivalent amount of ezETH, a liquidity restaking token, allowing users to earn staking rewards while maintaining liquidity. Renzo enhances the functionality and security of the Ethereum network through Active Validation Services (AVS) and introduces cross-chain restaking to improve capital efficiency. Additionally, Renzo issues a governance token, REZ, for protocol decision-making and incentives. The Renzo protocol has raised a $3.2 million seed fund and has received investments from entities including Binance Labs.
