Gauge Proposal Template:
Summary:
This is a proposal on behalf of InceptionLRT to enable a gauge for inETHx/ETHx on Ethereum. inETHx is the Restaked Token dedicated to ETHx, obtained through InceptionLRT’s restaking mechanism and platform.
InceptionLRT is an isolated Liquid Restaking protocol for Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs). Its core feature is the issuance of Isolated Liquid Restaking Tokens (iLRTs) for each restaked LST.

Protocol Description:
InceptionLRT is an isolated Liquid Restaking protocol for Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs), enabling the restaking of various LSTs. Its core feature is the issuance of Isolated Liquid Restaking Tokens (iLRTs) for each restaked LST.
These iLRTs can be freely traded and used in other DeFi protocols while maintaining segregation from the underlying LSTs. This architecture addresses potential risks associated with basket-based LRTs like increased complexity, counterparty risk, and often unclear pool rebalancing rules.
InceptionLRT is specifically designed to bolster the EigenLayer framework by addressing a critical challenge: the issue of liquidity locking in the protocol. This advancement positions InceptionLRT as a key player in enhancing the fluidity and accessibility of restaking in the DeFi landscape.
Motivation:
InceptionLRT aims to enable a gauge for inETHx/ETHx to substantially increase the liquidity of inETHx, while supporting its utility and viability for integration into a range of DeFi protocols.
Specifications:
