Renzo leans into layer 2s to boost market share, with more integrations on the way. Renzo’s ezETH token added 30%, or $730 million, to its total supply in the last seven days.
The total ezETH supply on layer 2 blockchains is $680 million, compared with the $428 million eETH from competitor Ether.fi.

Renzo, a liquid restaking protocol built on EigenLayer, has accelerated its push into Ethereum layer 2 networks as it competes with Ether.fi for market share in the liquid restaking token (LRT) sector. According to the DL News report, ezETH supply rose 30% in seven days, adding about $730 million overall, with roughly $270 million of that growth coming from layer 2 chains and bringing Renzo’s layer 2 ezETH supply to about $680 million. The story matters because it shows how LRT protocols are using layer 2 integrations to scale distribution and liquidity beyond Ethereum mainnet, while also highlighting the rivalry for dominance in a fast-growing niche of DeFi. Renzo’s broader total ezETH supply reached about $2.96 billion across all chains, compared with Ether.fi’s eETH at about $3.8 billion total supply, though Ether.fi had only about $428 million on layer 2 networks versus Renzo’s $680 million. The report also points to Blast as a particularly important integration for Renzo, suggesting that further layer 2 partnerships could deepen the competition as EigenLayer’s ecosystem expands.
