About Lido DAO

LDO, or Lido DAO, is the governance token for the Lido protocol, a leading platform in the liquid staking ecosystem. Lido allows users to stake their Ethereum and other supported cryptocurrencies while maintaining liquidity through staking derivatives like stETH. These derivatives can be used across DeFi platforms for lending, trading, or earning additional yields, making staking more flexible and accessible. LDO holders play a vital role in the protocol by participating in governance decisions, such as fee structures and validator selection, ensuring the platform's decentralized and community-driven nature. As liquid staking grows in popularity, Lido remains a key player in enabling users to maximize their staking rewards without sacrificing liquidity.

In a few years, it will be clear how much of @Dust_Org's story is actually told through denizens that built on it. The world by itself is just a base layer, what will give it weight will be the things people dared to build on top, the experiments that became infrastructure, the names that outlived entire cycles. These projects won't be cosmetic, they will be survival, because without them, DUST will have stayed a fragile experiment. The projects will carry ethereum forward when it could have collapsed under its own weight. and that’s why i don’t just see dust as digital matter anymore, i see the projects that kept showing up, cycle after cycle, building through the noise until the noise became irrelevant. dust didn’t grow up on its own. the projects did the heavy lifting.

sometimes i forget how much of ethereum’s story is actually told through the projects that built on it. the chain by itself is just a base layer, what gave it weight were the things people dared to build on top, the experiments that became infrastructure, the names that outlived entire cycles. uniswap changed the way we think about markets, just a pool of liquidity and a swap button. it literally defined what defi even means. makerDAO gave us dai, and with it, the first stablecoin that wasn’t backed by some corporation’s promises. dai was proof that stability could exist without banks, ut became the quiet backbone of countless protocols that followed. aave took lending and borrowing and stripped away the institution, suddenly credit wasn’t about trust in a person, it was about trust in code. then came lido; staking was supposed to be technical, hardware-heavy, inaccessible to most. lido turned it into a collective effort, liquid staking that anyone could access, and in the process it ended up shaping half of ethereum’s validator set. ens sounds small until you use it, a string of numbers became a name, and with it, identity on-chain stopped feeling alien. and then the layer 2s. arbitrum. optimism. base. they didn’t compete with ethereum, they actually carried it. millions of transactions that would have drowned the base chain found room to breathe on these highways, still anchored back to ethereum security. these projects weren’t cosmetic, they were survival, because without them, ethereum would have stayed a fragile experiment. high fees would have priced people out, complexity would have scared people away, and eventually the story would’ve been told on another chain. but the projects stayed, they adapted, they carried ethereum forward when it could have collapsed under its own weight. and that’s why i don’t just see ethereum as a coin anymore, i see the projects that kept showing up, cycle after cycle, building through the noise until the noise became irrelevant. ethereum didn’t grow up on its own. the projects did the heavy lifting.

Lido DAO FAQ

Lido is a decentralized protocol offering liquid staking services for various Proof of Stake (PoS) blockchains. When users stake assets with Lido, they receive tokenized equivalents of their staked tokens on a 1:1 basis. These tokens remain liquid, allowing users to use them across various platforms.

Lido charges a 10 percent fee on staking rewards. Despite being seen by some as a drawback, this rate aligns closely with industry standards, keeping Lido competitive.

Dive deeper into Lido DAO

One of the most significant events in the cryptocurrency industry was Ethereum's mainnet transition to Proof of Stake (PoS). This transition raised concerns due to the 32 ETH requirement to become an Ethereum validator for staking. Lido (LDO) emerged as a liquid staking solution in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space, lowering this high entrance barrier and enabling anyone to stake ETH and earn rewards.

What is Lido

Lido is a decentralized protocol offering liquid staking services for several PoS blockchains, including Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Polygon (MATIC), and Polkadot (DOT). Liquid staking addresses a critical issue in PoS staking, namely illiquidity, which occurs when assets are staked and locked, becoming inaccessible for a specific period. Lido overcomes this challenge by offering users liquidity and non-custodial staking solutions, allowing them to retain flexibility and access to their staked assets. By May 2023, Lido's total value locked (TVL) exceeded $11.7 billion, positioning it as the leading liquid staking platform.

The Lido community governs the protocol through the LDO token, empowering holders to vote on improvements, upgrades, and network parameters. This decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) also oversees insurance and development funds.

The Lido team

Lido was launched shortly after the Ethereuem merge in December 2020 by Lido DAO. Lido is governed by the community members and holders of the LDO token. Members of Lido DAO have a proven track record in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space. Notable contributors include Semantic VC, P2P Capital, ParaFi Capital, BitScale, Julien Bouteloup, and AAVE.

How does Lido work 

When users stake assets in Lido, they receive tokenized representations (like stETH or stDOT) in a 1:1 ratio. These tokenized assets remain liquid and accessible, allowing users to use them on other DeFi platforms, such as Maker DAO and Curve DAO. This enhanced liquidity expands users' opportunities and financial options.

LDO tokenomics

LDO is an ERC-20 token with a capped supply of 1 billion. LDO tokens are instrumental in Lido's governance; the more LDO tokens staked, the more voting power holders have in decision-making processes ranging from protocol upgrades to resource allocation.

LDO distribution

Upon launch, the 1 billion LDO tokens were distributed as follows:

  • 36.32 percent to the Lido DAO treasury
  • 22.18 percent to investors
  • 20 percent to initial Lido developers
  • 15 percent reserved for founders and future employees
  • 6.5 percent to validators and signature holders
