Refer to the **official tweet by LDO:** > Lido Poolside: Institutional > > Stop by on Thursday, September 17th, to discuss the latest institutional Ethereum staking developments and first results from the recent Lido Core upgrade. > > Featuring special guests from @Consensys and @Sharplink. > > More info: https://t.co/GFkvF9uT47 pic.twitter.com/2AuKIO2k1v > > Sep 04, 2026 **LDO Info** The Lido project is a liquid staking platform for PoS (Proof-of-Stake) cryptocurrencies, which enables users to stake their tokens on Lido and receive tokenized versions of their staked assets at a 1:1 ratio. Lido supports Ethereum 2.0 staking and other Layer 1 PoS blockchains, such as Solana, Polygon, Polkadot, and Kusama. By issuing these tokenized assets, users maintain liquidity and are able to participate in DeFi activities for additional yield while earning staking rewards. The mechanism of operation for Lido revolves around its unique liquid staking solution. Users can stake any amount of PoS assets, addressing the issues of illiquidity, complexity, and centralization present in traditional PoS staking. When a user deposits assets to Lido, they’re staked on the relevant blockchain via Lido’s smart contract, which manages deposits, withdrawals, fund delegation, fees, token minting and burning, and more. Users receive a tokenized version of their deposited funds (stAsset tokens), which can be used in DeFi protocols and dApps to earn additional rewards. Regarding the LDO token, it’s important to note that LDO is the native governance token of the Lido protocol. Holders of LDO tokens have the power to vote on proposals in the Lido DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization). The DAO governs the protocol and makes crucial decisions regarding its operation, ensuring alignment with stakeholder interests. The DAO manages fee parameters and distribution, addition and removal of node operators, and other aspects of the protocol, maintaining transparency and decentralization. ### Related Stocks - [ETHE.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETHE.US.md) - [ETHA.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETHA.US.md) - [EZET.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/EZET.US.md) - [CETH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CETH.US.md) - [GSOL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GSOL.US.md) - [TSOL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSOL.US.md) - [BSOL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BSOL.US.md) - [ETH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETH.US.md) - [QETH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/QETH.US.md) - [SOLZ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SOLZ.US.md) - [ETHV.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETHV.US.md) - [ETHW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETHW.US.md) - [FETH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/FETH.US.md) - [FSOL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/FSOL.US.md) - [SBET.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SBET.US.md) - [SBTU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SBTU.US.md) - [ETHT.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETHT.US.md) - [ETHU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETHU.US.md) - [ETU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETU.US.md) - [ETHD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETHD.US.md) - [ETQ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETQ.US.md) - [SETH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SETH.US.md) - [YETH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/YETH.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [Say Goodbye to "Air Cryptocurrencies": A Wave of Token Economy Reform Unfolds in the Crypto Industry](https://longbridge.com/en/news/297894337.md) - [Mint signs consulting deal with Currenc unit to tokenize Nasdaq-listed shares on Ethereum, Solana](https://longbridge.com/en/news/297910359.md) - [Ethereum Foundation names 2 ‘must ship’ EIPs for Hegotá upgrade](https://longbridge.com/en/news/298232714.md) - [OriginTrail to Participate in DKGcon 2026 on September 11th](https://longbridge.com/en/news/297834426.md) - [Ethereum: Protocol cluster targets quantum-resistant L1 by December 2029 - Dec 2029](https://longbridge.com/en/news/298228538.md) --- > **Disclaimer: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.**
