LidoDAO Votes to Align Its Vibe

June 27
Lido is a leading liquid staking provider solution for Ethereum and other Proof of Stake blockchains such as Polygon. Lido’s protocol allows users to add their native token (such as ETH or Matic) to a staking pool and earn returns without managing a validator by themselves or needing to individually supply the minimum staking amount required by protocols (Ethereum’s minimum is 32 ETH). Lido’s staking service is critical to the security of Ethereum’s consensus mechanism, as over 30% of all staked ETH is done so through Lido’s service. LidoDAO, which is governed by holders of the LDO token, manages the protocol as well as the use of the service fees collected by the protocol.

Uniswap v3 already exists on Arbitrum, Celo, Optimism, and Polygon, and there are others under consideration.

1inch DAO Considers Governance Improvements

Publisher
Boardroom
February 02
The 1inch Network describes itself as providing “one-stop access to decentralized finance.” The network itself is a collection of protocols, the first of which was a DEX aggregator that “searches deals across multiple liquidity sources, offering users better rates than any individual exchange.” The network also includes an Aggregator Protocol, a Liquidity Protocol, and a Limit Order Protocol — as well as its own wallet. The 1inch DAO governs the network, and “all participants in the DAO are working towards a common goal: 1inch Network protocols and the 1INCH token to be completely decentralized, owned and governed by the DAO.” The DAO’s governance process, originally based on that of Balancer and Gnosis, is adapting to the needs of the DAO, as we see with the proposal at hand.
