@ColinkaMalinka Thank you for the questions, I’ll clarify them below:
-
On grant eligibility - the intent is to exclude all operators that are part of a Super Cluster from the Grant Framework. The grant is meant to support participants in regular clusters through the transition, whereas Super Cluster participants would still continue to operate validators.
-
On the per-operator vs. per-cluster question - if an operator is part of multiple regular clusters, the 0.175 ETH grant would be paid only once. The grant would therefore be per operator, not per cluster slot.
-
For the December tranche, the same logic as above applies: Super Cluster operators would not be eligible for the Grant Framework.
-
On operator rotations - whenever an operator wound down their operations, the replacement operators have historically come from the previously approved backup list proposed by the Lido Node Operator Subgovernance Group (LNOSG). Selection was based on operators having demonstrated the ability to run performant nodes in the SimpleDVT Module, with consistent responsiveness and engagement, their infrastructure geolocation, and the participation in other clusters.
Please note that the LNOSG has now transitioned to the Curated Module Committee (CMC).
Appreciate your support and happy to hear that you’re already planning to participate through CSM. Please let us know if you have any other questions, thank you!
