Lido’s Twitter account has dubbed the upcoming v2 upgrade the “most significant update thus far” since its inception in December 2020. It holds particular importance because Ethereum is Lido’s primary and most significant market for liquid staking tokens.
This upgrade marks a pivotal moment in Lido’s journey. It aims to enhance its functionality and provide even greater value to its users within the Ethereum ecosystem.
Staking Routers to Attract Diverse Node Operators
As the Ethereum community eagerly awaits the launch of version 2.0, two key features are stealing the spotlight: ETH staking withdrawals and the new “Staking Router.” With these developments, there is hope that a more diverse range of node operators will join the staking process.
Leading the way in this arena is Lido, which currently holds the title of the most liquid staking platform in the DeFi space, with an impressive $11.77 billion locked on the Ethereum ecosystem, as reported by DefiLlama.
As excitement builds for the new upgrade, all eyes are on Lido. The potential for even more tremendous growth in the staking world.
Introducing staking routers is a groundbreaking feature aimed at enticing new developers to contribute to the protocol actively. With this exciting development, developers can propose and advocate for a non-composed implementation that aligns with their preferred characteristics and parameters. This move is expected to foster greater engagement and collaboration within the developer community.
Furthermore, the announcement states that the eagerly anticipated Lido V2 upgrade will be launched on the 15th of this month. However, the launch will occur if the vote approves.
This news has sparked anticipation and excitement among users. Who eagerly await the enhanced functionalities and improvements the new version will bring.
