If you look at it as a beta for $ETH, I should only be interested in $Eigen a little. It should indeed be only a matter of time before DAT accepts Restaking, and 2% is really worth a lot of money for their volume, so it's worth betting on an announcement to ambush one or two targets. And $Eigen from the perspective of currency prices, first, it has not yet been listed on the Korean exchange (there is room for imagination), and second, there has been a lot of exposure recently. However, there is one thing to note, the average number of unlocked coins per month was 5.36M before, and 35M per month starting from October 1st, which is quite a lot. But if you look at it the other way around, it means that there are no chips to unlock selling pressure before the end of the month, and play in the short term first.

If $ETH breaks a new high, will the concepts within the Ethereum ecosystem benefit? My answer is yes. But the premise is that you and I both believe that ETH will maintain this state in the coming time. If you think that ETH breaking a new high is just a flash in the pan, then you don't need to read the rest. Note that here we are talking about the ETH ecosystem, which includes L2, LST, LRT, and involves assets like $ARB, $OP, $EIGEN, $LDO, $ETHFI. L2 part: Arbitrum and OP can basically be considered L2 infrastructure, rather than just ordinary Rollups. OP Superchain has the highest market share, with top exchanges like Coinbase and Upbit in this camp, along with Unichain and Worldchain. On the Arbitrum side, there’s Robinhood. Currently, it seems that institutions and exchanges launching chains are unlikely to stray from these two solutions, which have a very high moat. LST and LRT part: There are more solutions here, but small ones have basically no survival space. From the perspective of institutions, it’s better to create their own solution. For a long time, the market believed that institutional staking and ETF staking would likely lead to self-built solutions, so LST and LRT were not discussed for a long time. However, with the emergence of DAT companies, this situation may change. Some of the old investment institutions in Ethereum have deep penetration, and these institutions have strong interests with leading staking/re-staking protocols. Bitmine has also stated that it will combine the use of liquid staking protocols (e.g., Lido) and native staking partnerships (e.g., Figment). Re-staking has long been considered discredited by the market due to a lack of sufficient clients. This stems from the market's insufficient demand for economic security and verifiability, but it does not mean it is unimportant; rather, the market is currently insensitive to this. Even if you are a data center chain, as long as there is a wealth creation effect and a good experience, the market is willing to accept it. The change here is that for DAT companies, if they accept liquid staking, then accepting re-staking is just a matter of time. The yield will increase by about 2 percentage points, which is significant for institutions. At the same time, the logic and implementation of re-staking are very simple and will not introduce excessive risk. In terms of selectivity, Lido and EigenLayer (EigenCloud) have absolute dominance in their respective fields, and a backup option is Etherfi. Lastly, the story that ETH DAT tells to distinguish itself from MicroStrategy is to invest ETH reserves into ecological construction to promote the growth of Ethereum's overall fundamentals, thereby attracting more traditional investors through this result. This "growth flywheel," if our assumption is valid and you are willing to believe it, then the most easily achievable in the recent context is the several tracks mentioned within the ETH ecosystem.

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
