What is Altlayer (ALT)?

Altlayer (ALT) is a cryptocurrency and the native utility token of the AltLayer protocol, a decentralised platform designed to facilitate the creation of Ethereum rollups. These rollups are intended to enhance the scalability of the Ethereum blockchain by bundling transactions together and executing them on a separate layer. This approach helps to reduce congestion on the main Ethereum chain. AltLayer is noteworthy for its use of a restaking mechanism to provide enhanced security, decentralisation, and faster finality for transactions within its ecosystem​​​​.

What is Altlayer (ALT) used for?

The ALT token is used for several critical functions within the AltLayer ecosystem:

  • Economic Bond: ALT tokens are used alongside restaked assets to provide economic stakes, which can be slashed if malicious behaviour is detected.
  • Governance: ALT token holders have the right to vote on governance decisions affecting the protocol.
  • Protocol Incentivisation: Operators within the AltLayer ecosystem can earn ALT tokens as rewards for their services, promoting active participation and maintenance of the network.
  • Protocol Fees: Participants in the network are required to pay fees in ALT tokens for intra-network services, ensuring the economic sustainability of the AltLayer protocol​​.
