Proof of Stake is secured by the amount of value that is staked. When stakers have to split their capital to stake some into the off-chain service and some other to Ethereum, it fragments economic security.

Let’s say that this staker had $100. They can either choose this $100 to stake ETH or to stake this other service or split this $100 to participate in Proof of Stake for both Ethereum and this service.
