What is EigenLayer?
EigenLayer (EIGEN) is an infrastructure / oracle network token currently ranked 257th by market capitalization across all crypto assets we track. Infrastructure tokens reward network participants — oracles, indexers, compute providers — for the services they supply to applications.
Market position
At the current price of $0.1916, EigenLayer carries a market capitalization of $64.80M. Daily trading volume across exchanges sits at roughly $8.77M. That works out to a 24-hour turnover of about 13.54% of the float — elevated turnover, often a signal of active narrative-driven trading.
Price action across timeframes
Over the past 24 hours, EigenLayer has moved -2.82%; over the past week, EigenLayer has moved -7.91%; over the past 30 days, EigenLayer has moved ++4.78%; over the past year, EigenLayer has moved -87.51%. The trend reads as broadly negative across timeframes — short-, mid-, and long-term momentum align downward.
Cycle position
EigenLayer is currently trading far below its all-time high (all-time high of $5.65, -96.6% from peak). Late-stage capitulation territory — the riskiest end of the cycle but historically the highest-reward. From its all-time low of $0.1479, current pricing represents a +30% recovery.
Supply & dilution
The circulating supply stands at 1,714,844,124 EIGEN. There is no explicit cap on maximum supply — issuance follows a programmatic schedule defined in the protocol.
Volatility profile
Recent price action puts EigenLayer in the Moderate-volatility bucket. The asset shows the kind of price movement common in mid-cap crypto assets — meaningful but not unusual. Over the past 30 days, the 30-day move totals +4.78%, which traders should weigh against position sizing and stop-loss placement.
How to evaluate EigenLayer
A balanced read on EIGEN typically considers three lenses:
- Network & on-chain activity — does usage justify the valuation? Live activity (above) should ideally trend up over time.
- Cycle position — current price relative to ATH (above) sets the risk/reward asymmetry. Closer to ATL is mathematically lower downside; closer to ATH is higher downside.
- Comparable assets — how is EIGEN performing against the broader crypto market (BTC, total market cap) and against peers in the same sector? The benchmarks chart on this page shows this directly.
This page combines live market data, on-chain stats where available, exchange-by-exchange volume, and our forecast model so you can answer those three questions in one place. Nothing on this page is investment advice — it's a structured starting point for your own due diligence.
