🔷 Why you should look at $LDO
📋 Achievements:
• The largest liquid staking protocol for ETH: $26.2B TVL
• stETH — the collateral standard in Aave, Compound, Maker
• 4.2M ETH staked through Lido
• July 2026: validator consolidation, reduced by a third
• Node operators now provide collateral
• $3.29B paid out in rewards
🧠 My take: Lido dominates with ~30% of staked ETH. stETH has become the DeFi standard. Validator consolidation in July shows maturity. But 30% concentration is a centralization risk. Rocket Pool, Frax, Coinbase are pushing.
⚠️ Risks: centralization; regulation; competition.
❓ Will it keep dominating? 👇
