Introducing Rio Network

What is the Rio Network?

Rio Network is a network for issuing Liquid Restaking Tokens (LRTs), with a mission to provide the best access to risk-managed ETH total return without sacrificing liquidity.

Rio will help scale the restaking ecosystem and reduce the cost of capital for Actively Validated Services (AVS) by providing the best risk-managed access to restaking rewards.

How does the Rio Network operate?

Rio Network executes against this mission by coordinating AVS selection and weighting, operator selection and management, liquidity and asset mix for restaked deposits, and efficient aggregation of restaking rewards.

What is a Liquid Restaking Token (LRT)?

LRTs aggregate rewards from both staking and restaking operations into a fungible token (eg. reETH) while abstracting the complexity of running highly-available infrastructure, selecting restaking applications, and selling rewards from the end user.
