Insurance coverage active

EigenLayer's assessment for RD-F-089 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Nexus Mutual offers a 'Bundled Protocol Cover' product that includes EigenLayer as part of a multi-protocol stack (alongside ether.fi, Pendle) — this is passive user-purchasable cover, not a protocol-sponsored insurance fund. No evidence EigenLayer has purchased or sponsors proportionate Nexus Mutual, Sherlock, or Unslashed cover at the $8.9B TVL scale. At $8.9B TVL, no first-party or proportionate third-party insurance active. Yellow (not red because: protocol security is structural/smart-contract-based; no insurance gap is a near-universal condition for large restaking protocols; Nexus Mutual product availability provides partial mitigation).
