The liquid restaking protocol is designed to enhance the security and liquidity of the EigenLayer, Symbiotic, and Jito Network ecosystems with new and improved versions of the standard liquid staking protocols.

Other notable digital assets available for restaking via the protocol include Solana (SOL), Jito (JTO), and EigenLayer (EIGEN), according to the project’s official webpage.

"Renzo is a restaking protocol that abstracts and manages AVS strategies for Liquid Restaking Tokens (LRTs), making Ethereum and Solana restaking ezpz and accessible to everyone.

The products ezETH, pzETH, and ezSOL serve as interfaces to the EigenLayer, Symbiotic, and Jito Network ecosystems, respectively. Renzo’s mission is to make restaking easy and accessible to everyone."
