CSM stakeShareLimit increase to 7.5% of Lido TVL

Recent months have been a massive success for the Lido Community Staking Module (CSM)! With the release of CSM v2 in October 2025 and a further increase in Lido deposits, CSM has reached the current stakeShareLimit of 5%. Changes in the CSM fee structure introduced in CSM v2 resulted in a meaningful rise (from 4% to 6.1%) in Lido DAO revenue obtained via CSM while keeping CSM the most attractive home staking solution on the market, both in terms of rewards and UX.

With all that said, and given the previously approved CSM stakeShareLimit increase up to 10%, it is proposed to take a gradual approach to stakeShareLimit increase and set the following parameters for CSM in one of the first on-chain votes in 2026:

  • stakeShareLimit=750 BPS (7.5%)
  • priorityExitShareThreshold=900 BPS (stakeShareLimit * 1.2 or 9%)

This will result in an increase of the CSM stakeShareLimit to 7.5% of Lido TVL, while maintaining the priorityExitShareThreshold (the share of TVL after which CSM is prioritized for exits to fulfill withdrawals) at a safe level. This ensures that withdrawal exits are unlikely to occur from CSM unless its TVL share exceeds 9%.
