Governance Grove Delegate Thread

Batch Voting Date: July 27th, 2025

Proposal: Onchain Vote #190
Vote: For
Rationale:

  1. Rotate Lido on Ethereum Oracle Set member Kyber Network for Caliber: In line with our rationale for the Snapshot vote
  2. Increase CSM stake share limit from 2% to 3%. In line with our rationale for the Snapshot vote
  3. Enable a grace period for CSM Node Operators by setting keyRemovalCharge = 0: As CSM v2 comes with an updated rewards structure, this features allows CSM Operators who are currently in the deposit queue to be treated fairly and exit without penalties if they no longer wish to run validators using Lido CSM. Forum discussion here.
  4. Introduce a simplified CSVerifier for CSM: Cleaning up unused code ahead of CSM v2 will reduce maintenance overhead of the DAO’s development resources. Forum discussion here.
  5. Update the reward address and name for Node Operator ID 2 P2P.ORG - P2P Validator as Requested on the forum: Operational update of the information of a Curated Set Node Operator.
  6. Switch off Easy Track environment for PML, ATC, RCC entities: Removing “fast track” processes that are no longer used makes sense to avoid operational mistakes down the road.

Proposal: CSM v2 Final Rollout
Vote: Yes
Rationale:

  1. Overall: Improving the module and increasing the stake share limit makes sense as Lido CSM helps decentralise both Lido’s and Ethereum’s node operator set by creating more home stakers. Decentralising Lido’s node operator set also further solidifies stETH’s position as the prime collateral across DeFi
  2. The Identified Community Stakers Framework and new rewards structure mitigates the negative effects of sybils and large professional stakers crowding out bona fide at-home stakers.

Proposal: Triggerable Withdrawals Framework in the Lido Protocol
Vote: Yes
Rationale: This feature enables secure and verifiable validator exits via the Execution Layer if needed, instead of solely relying on Oracles and Node Operators to perform these exits. This reduces trust assumptions for the DAO and enables it to be more fault-tolerant.
