## What happened

Lido tokenholders approved the final rollout plan for Community Staking Module v2.

## What changed

The approval finalized a migration and operating framework with permissionless, Legacy Early Adopter, and Identified Community Staker operator types, EIP-7002 support, revised performance accounting, and committee reimbursement funding.

## What did not change

CSM v2 was not deployed in July, existing operators were not yet migrated, and pending audits and later on-chain execution remained necessary.

## Confirmed

- The Snapshot ended on July 28, 2025 with approximately 52.35 million LDO voting for and about 12 LDO against.
- The approved rollout defines three initial node-operator types.
- The design includes EIP-7002 support and an updated Performance Oracle.
- The Identified Community Stakers framework uses address-ownership proofs and published eligibility scoring.
- The proposal includes 10 stETH of committee funding for eligible reimbursement of incorrectly penalized operators.

## Still open

- Final audit findings and remediation.
- The on-chain upgrade vote, execution date, and deployed contract state.
- Final operator classifications, bond curves, module allocation, and committee permissions.
- Effects on validator concentration, performance-oracle errors, penalties, reimbursements, and withdrawal behavior.

## What it means for an advisor

- Supersede the May architecture-stage interpretation with final-rollout approval while retaining a non-operative posture.
- Review final code, audits, operator classifications, committee authority, performance accounting, and executed module limits before updating Lido suitability conclusions.

## Previous interpretation

The May event established approval of the CSM v2 architecture and fee structure but not the final rollout plan, finalized operator framework, reimbursement authority, or production authorization.
