@dennison thanks for your reply but I’m still not clear on your position since the analogies you use seem to be from different contexts.
I get why bribing markets are inevitable in Curve and Yearn since there gauges to vote on. There is someone willing to buy votes since there is a financial benefit to getting more votes for your gauge.
Could you describe why there would be a bribing market for ENS though, who would buy the votes? Bribing in ENS to raid the treasury seems like a pathological case compared to protocol-sanctioned gauge bribing in Curve and Yearn.
I get why restaking platforms exist. Staked ETH provides economic security because slashing is defined at the protocol level and this security can be re-used. How would ENS in Eigenlayer work? Do you mean that the staked ENS would get slashed if there’s misbehavior?
As Nick mentioned, it would really help for you to be concrete and specific in the examples you use and why they apply to ENS.
I’m still hazy on why LST provides more aligned and targeted incentives compared to VE.
