Lido Integrates with Scroll ZK Rollup for Bridging wstETH
🔑 Unlock New Horizons
Lido has announced the integration of its wrapped staked Ether (wstETH) token with the Scroll ZK rollup, allowing users to bridge their wstETH to the Scroll ecosystem. The bridging process involves visiting the Lido website, selecting wstETH, and approving the transaction to deposit the desired amount on Scroll. This integration paves the way for staked ETH to become a core asset across the Scroll ecosystem. Lido's Layer 2 expansion prioritizes security and risk isolation through the use of canonical bridges and separate bridge contracts for each token. The future plans include introducing rebasable stETH on Layer 2 networks, improving bridging architecture, and expanding wstETH support to additional Layer 2 networks like Lisk and Starknet.

🔐 Obol Launches Ethereum Client Team Vault on Lido V3
Obol has launched the **Ethereum Client Team Vault**, a multi-operator staking solution built on Lido V3 using Distributed Validator Technology (DVT). **Key Features:** - Operated by four Ethereum client teams: Sigma Prime, ChainSafe, Develp, and Nethermind - Conservative configuration with no leverage or complex DeFi strategies - Focuses on validator performance, operator quality, client diversity, and decentralization **What Makes It Different:** - First curated, operator-specific vault with rewards tied to a defined set of operators - Allows users to express preferences for client diversity and multi-operator security - Leverages Lido's trusted infrastructure without complex deposit flows or new smart contracts The vault targets ETH-aligned stakers, DAO treasuries, and capital allocators seeking secure, low-risk staking that supports Ethereum's core development teams.

🔓 Lido Opens Permissionless Staking to All
Lido's **Community Staking Module (CSM)** now allows anyone to run validators with reduced ETH requirements and better capital efficiency than solo staking. **Key Updates:** - Permissionless entry removes barriers to becoming a validator operator - Lower ETH requirements compared to traditional 32 ETH solo staking - Share limit increased from 5% to 7.5% of total Lido stake - Designed to enhance protocol decentralization by onboarding 300+ independent node operators The CSM represents a shift toward more accessible Ethereum validation, enabling independent stakers and small groups to participate in Lido's validator set without permission requirements.

Lido Seeks Community Input on Ethereum Protocol Migration Costs
Lido is calling for feedback from the Ethereum community on their upcoming **0x02 and CMv2 migration**. The protocol has published a research post examining the costs and implications of this technical upgrade. **Key Points:** - Community input is being actively sought from researchers, builders, and stakers - The migration involves protocol-level changes that will impact how Lido operates - A detailed research post is available for review and discussion The team emphasizes that **community feedback will directly influence** how the migration is implemented. This follows Lido's pattern of incorporating Ethereum Foundation research into their network roadmap decisions.
