Should the Lido DAO add the 8 shortlisted Ethereum provider organizations as node operators?
Between November and December 2021, the Lido Node Operator Subgovernance Group (LNOSG) received and evaluated 23 onboarding applications for inclusion into the Lido Node Operator set for the Ethereum protocol.
As a result of the evaluations performed on Dec 8, 2021, the LNOSG is recommending the following node operators for onboarding to the Lido DAO:
- ChainLayer
- ConsenSys Software Inc (Codefi)
- HashQuark
- Infinity Stones Inc (DBA InfStones)
- Stakin
- Stakely
- Simply VC (Simply Staking)
- BridgeTower Capital
Honorary mention goes to Gweilabs who were initially shortlisted but indicated they would not be able to proceed to mainnet in the desired timeframe, and postponed their application to the next onboarding round.

This vote will run for five days and seeks LDO holder approval of the onboarding of the abovementioned node operators for the respective protocols.
Our goal with onboarding new node operators is to improve the decentralization and resilience of the Lido protocol, as well as bringing on new organizations with strong skill sets and alignment with Lido’s values to help grow liquid staking on the networks the Lido protocol supports.
