# Understanding Allstake

[Allstake](https://allstake.org/) is the first meshed restaking protocol that brings restaking to all chains. By decoupling consensus and execution, Allstake enables trustless scaling, offering enhanced scalability, security, and decentralization.&#x20;

Allstake extends beyond Ethereum; it builds a “verifiable cloud” for the broader crypto landscape, enabling users to natively restake a wide range of assets (LSTs, LRTs, LP tokens, stablecoins, etc.) on multiple chains including [NEAR](https://near.org/), [Solana](https://solana.com/zh), [Bitcoin](https://bitcoin.org/en/), [Ethereum](https://ethereum.org/), [Ton](https://ton.org/), and more. Allstake comprises a modular toolkit that includes a programmable multi-asset economic module, a restaking hub for managing restaking logics, a chain signature module for synchronizing states and slashing on other chains, and light clients for trustless verification.

The core infrastructure, Allstake Hub, is built on the [NEAR Protocol](https://near.org/); it manages all the Actively Validated Services (AVS) and operators, and tracks all deposit, delegation, and withdrawal states of restakers. Chain Signature’s cross-chain messaging and query capabilities allow Allstake to securely and reliably monitor the users’ stake, delegation, and other messages across different chains, even including non-smart contract ones like Bitcoin and XRP. This integration enables Allstake to streamline operations such as issuing rewards and slashing on other chains, optimizing both the user experience and costs.&#x20;

Allstake empowers multichain applications by providing security from the application layer to even the physical level. AVS derives security from each chain they operate on, creating a decentralized ecosystem where users from all chains can contribute to AVS security. By attracting validators from multiple chains, Allstake increases decentralization and real-world censorship resistance. This validator diversification further improves the security guarantee of AVS.
