Aethir launches Checker node repurchase plan and launches eATH token to support ecosystem expansion

Odaily Planet Daily News: According to official sources, Aethir has officially launched the Checker Node Repurchase Program, allowing node holders to sell their NFT licenses to the Aethir Foundation in exchange for eATH (EigenATH) tokens. The plan aims to strengthen the Aethir ecosystem by guiding new computing clusters to join Aethir's decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) stack. The repurchase price of the checker node will fluctuate based on market conditions and repurchase rates, and early participants will receive additional rewards. EATH tokens have a one-year lock up period, during which they will continue to earn ATH rewards, with a redemption period of 30 days after June 13, 2026. EATH will be used to support Aethir's decentralized cloud computing infrastructure, particularly by guiding new GPU cloud hosts through EigenLayer's AVS model. Users holding eATH can receive rewards linked to the performance of Aethir's decentralized GPU cloud market. In addition, eATH holders will be eligible for special rewards for Aethir's future airdrops (Season 2 and Season 3) and may receive immediate liquidity through Pendle.
