Lido launched 0x02 CSM, allowing permissionless validator operation

Lido has launched 0x02 CSM, allowing permissionless operation for validators with a maximum effective balance of 2048 ETH. Operators do not need to self-fund the staking deposit; they only need to provide a bond. The first key requires 32 ETH, and subsequent keys require 30 ETH, with staking allocated by the protocol.

This module adopts an initial deposit queue and an additional staking queue with a limit of 32 seats; the initial share cap upon launch is 0.01% of Lido Core TVL, and the first batch of approximately 32 keys will receive seed deposits.
