About LDO
Lido (LDO) is a decentralized staking solution that allows users to stake assets such as Ethereum, Solana, and other Proof-of-Stake (PoS) tokens while maintaining liquidity. By staking with Lido, users receive liquid staked tokens (e.g., stETH for Ethereum) that can be used in DeFi while still earning staking rewards. Lido’s liquid staking model helps increase capital efficiency by enabling staked assets to be utilized across DeFi applications. Lido’s governance is controlled by LDO token holders, who vote on protocol upgrades, risk management, and fee parameters. For real-time LDO prices, historical trends, and governance updates, users can visit our Lido Markets page to stay informed on this leading liquid staking platform.
