Lido Node Operator Portal
Node Operators
Node Operators (NOs) enable stETH, the liquid staking token powered by the Lido protocol. The better the underlying operator sets are, the more robust, resilient, and performant the underlying protocol. Good operator sets improve the resiliency of Ethereum, increase community acceptance, and reduce protocol risks.
Modules
Explore different options of running a validator using the Lido Protocol and choose the one that suits you the best: DVT, curated or permissionless.

Validator Set Updates
Lido V3 Testnet-2 is Live
The next phase of Lido’s evolution is here! V3 Testnet-2, fully rebuilt from the ground up, introduces a new architecture and unleashes the full potential of stVaults. Under the hood: a more modular and reliable design, Vault Hub, fees, slashing reserve, Lido Core redemptions, and more — all ready to explore.
Start testing and building with stVaults today.
Simple DVT Module Anniversary
Q2 marked the first anniversary of the Simple DVT Module — a major milestone in Lido’s journey toward a more decentralized validator set. Discover how the module has grown since its inception, its impact and what’s next:
Block Proposals SNOP V3 Approved
To reflect the current state of Ethereum and Lido’s protocol evolution, LDO tokenholders have approved an upgrade to the Lido on Ethereum Standard Node Operator Protocol – Block Proposals V3, extending the scope of NOs it’s aimed for, introducing the concept of APMs and listing of responsibilities in respect to proposer activity and distribution of associated rewards
