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.

Validator Set Updates
ICS and IDVTC Results, 0x02 CSM Around The Corner
Independent participation through the CSM continued to expand in September, with the number of approved ICS applications reaching 404 and two additional IDVTC qualifying in the latest assessment rounds.
Meanwhile, following a successful public testnet, 0x02 CSM is moving closer to mainnet, opening a new permissionless path for running validators with effective balances of up to 2,048 ETH through Lido Core.
Curated Stake Migration Underway
The migration of approximately 8.4M ETH from the legacy Curated Module to CMv2 is officially underway, with the first validator consolidations successfully completed in September. By the end of the month, approximately 917.4k ETH had already been migrated to Curated Module v2, while top-up deposits enablement brought the module closer to the next phase of the migration.
