TechFlow news: According to the Snapshot governance page, the Lido community has initiated a vote on a proposal to approve the Community Staking Module. This module would allow permissionless access to Lido's validator set on Ethereum, subject to bond requirements.
Currently, Lido on Ethereum operates with a curated set of node operators. At this stage, the DAO has approved the Simple DVT module signaling proposal, planning for launch in Q1 2024.
If approved, the community staking team will conduct further research and development on the proposed module, and propose a mainnet version along with all parameters during an on-chain upgrade vote near the end of 2024, subject to approval by the Lido DAO.
