This topic keeps coming up, which I see as a natural part of the process—proposals evolve and refine over time. However, I believe a more thorough research phase is still needed before moving toward any specific actions.

I’d like to draw your attention to previous discussions on this subject:  
🔹 [Proposal for Lido staking ETH rewards for LDO stakers](https://research.lido.fi/t/proposal-for-lido-staking-eth-rewards-for-ldo-stakers/7123/2)  
🔹 [Activate Lido protocol governance with revenue share staking](https://research.lido.fi/t/activate-lido-protocol-governance-with-revenue-share-staking/6738)

The second discussion includes two detailed comments from @Hasu and @steakhouse, strongly recommend reading.

Additionally, given that **GOOSE Goals -2** , which were supported by the DAO, directly address this topic—  
_“By tying LDO more directly to protocol revenue, we can attract committed, long-term holders who are invested in Lido’s growth and success.”_— I expect that researching this issue and finding the best approach to alignment will likely become part of the roadmap this year.
