Puffer Financecontributes to the research and development of decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem. Our first focus was to address the staking industry's slashing risks, empower solo stakers, and foster decentralization by releasing our anti-slashing technology as a public good. Looking to the future, we have already started and will continue to contribute to the emerging field of decentralized sequencers and re-staking.

Our flagship product is the most trustless and capital-efficient liquid staking protocol on the market.
