Restaking Cloud is a decentralized, permissionless restaking platform designed to enable Ethereum validators and holders of liquid staking tokens (LSTs) to earn additional yield by leveraging their staked ETH security across multiple blockchain networks and decentralized applications. It operates through the K2 Protocol, a unified staking pool that redistributes Ethereum's security to Layer 1 blockchains, Layer 2 rollups, oracles, and DeFi protocols, enhancing their decentralization and security without requiring new validator infrastructure. This approach allows existing validators to natively delegate their validator balances and LSTs to the K2 pool, earning extra yield while supporting the broader Ethereum ecosystem.

The platform targets node operators, restakers, reporters, and borrowers within its ecosystem, providing composable payouts and native delegation features. Restaking Cloud supports adaptive staking pools and issues Restaked Staking Tokens (RSTs) when users borrow through the K2 protocol, which can be used for various protocol operations. The system is designed to be permissionless and decentralized, avoiding single points of authority and enabling seamless integration with middleware and dapps. Developers can interact with the protocol using the K2 SDK and middleware components, which facilitate connection to execution layers, DeFi protocols, and other blockchain services.

What sets Restaking Cloud apart is its focus on composability and modular security, allowing Ethereum staked assets to secure multiple networks simultaneously, thereby increasing capital efficiency and yield opportunities. Its native delegation and MEV Plus integration enable validators to connect to execution layers and DeFi applications more effectively. The project is actively evolving, with a strong community presence on Discord and Twitter, and offers extensive documentation, code walkthroughs, and developer resources. Real-world use cases include securing rollups, Layer 2 scaling solutions, and decentralized oracles, making it a versatile tool for enhancing blockchain security and yield generation.

Developers and node operators can get started by exploring the K2 protocol documentation, deploying the K2 middleware, and participating in the dApp for restaking and borrowing. The open-source SDK and middleware components provide a foundation for building custom restaking applications and integrating with the broader Ethereum staking ecosystem.
