The Alt-DA Mode feature is still in beta, meaning Optimism core contributors are still improving Alt-DA Mode.

AVS Spotlight: Xterio MACH

Xterio MACH was one of the very first AVS on EigenLayer Mainnet. It was launched by Xterio, a Web3 game developer and publisher founded by veterans of the game industry. 

Like DODOchain and Cyber, it was built with AltLayer’s restaked rollup MACH product to achieve fast finality for the Xterio L2. The restaked deposits through EigenLayer to secure MACH are used to attest to the validity of a given rollup’s state offering a fast finality layer for rollups. 

So far Xterio MACH is secured by 42 node operators and 93,822 stakers, with over 1,180,000 ETH in total value restaked.
