Lido controls over 30% of all staked ETH — a staggering figure that raises eyebrows about the health of the Ethereum network. The stETH derivative is the most widely used liquid staking token, but the concentration of validators in a few node operators is a red flag that can’t be ignored. The Lido DAO is attempting to address this with gatekeeper expansions and new node operator sets, but the inertia of dominant market share is hard to unwind. This vault tackles that centralisation challenge head‑on — because it’s the most important issue in PoS today.
