PANews reported on June 23rd that EigenLayer has implemented additional security features for its EigenDA data availability service on the Ethereum mainnet to prevent Sybil and DDoS attacks. According to EigenDA's announcement, the whitelist security measures utilize IP addresses or Ethereum address ECDSA authentication to ensure enhanced protection and secure access to the service.

Odaily Planet Daily News reported that EigenDA stated in a post on X that rollups on the mainnet can now use EigenDA for free, and all rollups are welcome to publish blobs to EigenDA on the Ethereum mainnet. In order to prevent witch/DDoS attacks on the free layer, the team has deployed a whitelist that is authenticated through IP or ETH address ECDSA. The current free unlicensed layer is 6 blobs per batch of 128KB, with a total of 768KB every 10 minutes, but partners can work with EigenDA to seek improvement in this metric. In contrast, the free tier throughput of EigenDA exceeds the throughput used by the most commonly used rollups on Ethereum (e.g. Base publishes less than 1 blob every 10 minutes). The official statement stated that it is currently committed to achieving permissionless payment for blob throughput on EigenDA, which will be released later this year. When the system is launched, EigenDA will still provide reserved bandwidth for high-throughput use cases at a fixed rate. EigenDA is currently generating a synthetic load of 0.6 MB/s and has conducted load tests on the mainnet with peak throughput of up to 10 MB/s. In contrast, Ethereum's 4844 blob throughput is 0.032 MB/s, and Celestia mainnet is at 1/6 MB/s.
