Introducing Partner Cohort 1

Since coming out of stealth two months ago, we’ve been blown away by the amount of interest and enthusiasm for Symbiotic’s shared security framework. A budding ecosystem of builders, operators, and researchers alike are contributing to the shared mission of rapid, secure, and capital-efficient decentralization. Symbiotic’s goal is simple: make decentralization the default - no longer an afterthought or distant part of a roadmap.

As we continue to approach mainnet launch in September, more and more teams are choosing Symbiotic due to the flexibility, immutability, and ease of development. We’re excited to announce Cohort 1, consisting of 14 networks leveraging Symbiotic to solve a wide range of use cases.

  • Frax - Frax is using Symbiotic restaking to secure its rollup security and sequencing, DeFi oracles, and cross-chain bridging. Symbiotic's restaking technology will help complete Frax's decentralization roadmap across its DeFi & Layer 2 ecosystems by allowing Frax's issued assets to have restaking utility in mission-critical services.
  • EtherFi - Ether.fi is exploring the buildout of the following pairing of networks, a Decentralized Verifier Network (DVN) and an oracle service, both critical to servicing integral infrastructure within the ether.fi ecosystem.
  • RedStone - RedStone is a Modular Oracle developing a Symbiotic network for aggregation of data feeds utilizing a restaking module. In such a way, both Symbiotic native assets and the future $RED token could be used to decentralize and protect the system from malicious actors.  
  • Arrakis - The Arrakis Network is tapping Symbiotic to bootstrap economic security to power a decentralized, vertically-integrated market-making protocol designed to benefit liquidity providers by animating their liquidity and recapturing MEV. SPICE & spiceETH (an upcoming LRT backed by stETH) can be restaked to form consensus for strategy execution and block builder coordination.
  • Stride - Restaked stTIA on Symbiotic will be used to secure Stride’s Hyperlane ISM deployment, which is the exclusive bridge used to transfer stTIA to the Eclipse and Forma rollups.
  • Capx - Capx is integrating with Symbiotic, allowing its restakers to stake on operators running a novel leaderless auction mechanism for our AI resource matching engine.
  • Primev - Primev is integrating Symbiotic to enable Ethereum validators to earn additional yield through preconfirmations and other commitment games by opting in to mev-commit via restaking.
  • Router - By leveraging Symbiotic's permissionless restaking, Router Chain will utilize and enable Cosmos-based chains to leverage Ethereum's security, addressing one of the key challenges in the Cosmos ecosystem—security limited by the market cap of the native tokens.
  • Pragma - Pragma is building the first zk-oracle to optimally price all assets and instruments, integrating Symbiotic to improve its deterministic module's economic security.
  • Hinkal - Hinkal's Shared Privacy ecosystem is aiming to provide cross-chain privacy by enabling horizontal scaling for all networks, using Symbiotic’s restaking solution to fortify Relayers with the economic backing they require.
  • Inference Labs - Inference Labs is hyperscaling AI with Symbiotic by launching an inference verification layer to ensure security with the efficiency of off-chain computations.
  • Ditto - Ditto Network is leveraging Symbiotic's shared security to create a trustless actively validated keeper network that executes event-driven workflows with economic guarantees.
  • RollChains - Rollchains is integrating Symbiotic into Spawn, the premier Cosmos developer platform. Protocol developers will be able to launch fully custom Cosmos SDK networks with Symbiotic as an economic security provider option.
  • Leaf - Leaf partners with Symbiotic, enabling MEV-free rollups secured by any ERC-20 token through restaking.

We look forward to continuing to build alongside great teams and furthering the shared security ecosystem together. If you’re interested in building with Symbiotic, reach out to us here.
