 # Introduction
 This repository allows users to generate the proofs necessary to prove consensus layer state on EigenLayer, specifically the EigenPods system.  These proofs are used for verifying 1) that withdrawal credentials of a validator are pointed to an EigenPod, 2) that changes in balance of a validator due to slashing, etc can be propagated to EigenLayer's smart contracts 3) Prove a validator's withdrawal on the consensus layer, which then allows a staker to withdraw their validator's ETH from their EigenPod. Specifically, these proofs are passed as inputs to the verifyWithdrawalCredentials(), verifyBalanceUpdates() and verifyAndProcessWithdrawals() functions, see [here](https://github.com/Layr-Labs/eigenlayer-contracts/blob/master/src/contracts/interfaces/IEigenPod.sol) for the exact function interface definitions.
