Rationale: This is a meaningful step forward in how Lido recognizes and incentivizes Node Operator contributions.
It introduces a structured, merit-based classification system that rewards genuine alignment whether through Ethereum infrastructure work, decentralization efforts, DVT adoption, or long-term DAO commitment.
The tiered design is well considered: it avoids stacking incentives arbitrarily, builds in regular reassessment, and preserves DAO oversight on all critical decisions.
This is exactly the kind of adaptable governance infrastructure CMv2 needs to scale responsibly. Voting yes.
Rationale: This system introduces a clear and rulebased mechanism that links protocol performance to LDO in a disciplined and transparent way.
The design is conservative and LP mode strengthens LDO liquidity and creates DAO owned positions, improving market depth without relying on external incentives.
I also think the flexibility is a strong point the ability to switch between LP and Treasury modes and expand revenue sources later gives the DAO room to adapt without redesigning the system.
Rationale: This is just removing operational friction. The stETH limit increase is proportionate to LOL’s expanded mandate, and the stablecoin factory eliminates unnecessary manual overhead.
