Proposal Overview:
This project proposes the development of a batch registration tool designed to streamline the validator registration process for the Lido Community Staking Module (CSM) contract.
The current CSM limitation of 25 deposit data entries per upload significantly impedes users who need to register hundreds of validators. By leveraging batch processing and data splitting, this tool addresses that bottleneck, reducing the time required for manual data segmentation and minimizing human error.
This tool will help reduce operational overhead, lower interaction costs, and enhance efficiency for validators, particularly for institutional holders, DAOs, and high-volume stakers. With its impact on validator onboarding, it aligns with the Community Staking initiative’s goal of providing useful CSM-related tooling contributions that help node operators understand and use the protocol more effectively.
Additionally, this tool will be developed as a CLI tool powered by Node.js, with plans for a standalone SDK implementation. It is designed to be accessible to all users, regardless of whether they use SafeStake, another DVT provider, or a different staking setup. The initial demo uses a temporary CLI for internal development automation, but the long-term goal is to enable seamless validator registration across the staking ecosystem.
Key Features:
Batch processing to bypass the 25-entry upload limitation Data splitting for easier uploads.
Minimization of manual segmentation to reduce human error Reduction of operational overhead and interaction costs.
Increased efficiency for high-volume validators and institutional holders.
Funding Request:
This work should take approximately 2 weeks and should cost $8K paid in DAI.
