Earlier this week, Lido Finance ($LDO) introduced the Community Staking Module (CSM) on the Ethereum mainnet, marking a significant development in its liquid staking solutions for proof-of-stake (PoS) networks.
CSM opens with an Early Adoption phase, where select solo stakers and high-performing participants from the testnet stage gain initial access.
This module enables any node operator to use Lido on Ethereum to run validators, with the capital requirement reduced to just 2.4 $ETH for the first validator.
By lowering the entry threshold, Lido aims to make validator operations more accessible to a broader range of participants.
