## What happened

Lido's Snapshot approved increasing the Easy Track security limit for stETH transfers to the Liquidity Observation Lab multisig from 2,100 stETH per three months to 6,000 stETH per six months.

## What changed

The approval created a path to raise the amount transferable through the existing Easy Track recipient and top-up controls and lengthen the budget-reset period, materially changing the magnitude of the operational transfer authority.

## What did not change

The April Snapshot did not execute the new limit, approve additional grant funding, change the recipient multisig, or itself transfer stETH.

## Confirmed

- The official forum reports that the Snapshot ended and passed on April 28.
- The approved limit was 6,000 stETH for each six-month period.
- The prior limit was 2,100 stETH for each three-month period.
- The stated purpose was to align the security threshold with an already approved Liquidity Observation Lab grant.

## Still open

- The final Aragon payload, vote, and execution transaction.
- The exact post-execution factory configuration and spent-amount state.
- Whether the higher threshold changes operational loss severity or multisig-control assumptions.
- Actual transfers made under the expanded limit.

## What it means for an advisor

- Review the Lido memo's Easy Track and Liquidity Observation Lab multisig control map because the approved transfer magnitude is materially higher.
- Verify the final on-chain factory parameters, recipient, reset period, and execution before treating the limit as operative.
- Do not conflate the higher security threshold with new funding approval or evidence that multisig risk decreased.
