Lido’s native token $LDO isn’t just moving—it’s roaring back to life. 🚀
In just seven days, it’s up 64%, hitting $1.52, as a perfect storm of bullish catalysts ignites investor excitement.
The first spark? Regulatory clarity. The SEC has officially confirmed that liquid staking doesn’t qualify as a securities offering—lifting a heavy shadow that’s been pressing down on $LDO since 2024. Layer on top of that BlackRock’s bold move to include staking in its spot Ethereum ETF application, and you’ve got a potential tidal wave of institutional demand. With Lido already commanding 25% of ETH’s staking market, the upside narrative writes itself.
Then comes the treasury play. A fresh proposal suggests using Lido’s $145M reserves to buy back $LDO, with a flexible allocation of 50–70% of liquid assets depending on treasury health. While the finer details (like burns) aren’t locked in yet, the market clearly likes what it sees. A decisive Snapshot vote on August 25 could cement the program and inject even more confidence.
After months of lagging behind DeFi giants like $AAVE and $ENA, $LDO is stepping back into the spotlight. With regulatory tailwinds, possible ETF-driven inflows, and smart capital management, the stage is set for a potential price discovery phase.
The next few weeks will be make-or-break—either LDO turns this momentum into a sustained climb, or the rally fizzles into just another blip in the chart. Right now, though, all eyes are on the August vote. 🔥
