Lido Plots Massive Migration with Hefty Price Tag Ahead

Lido aims to migrate its Curated Module (CMv1) to CMv2, supporting 0x02 validators, by spring 2026. Estimated costs for upgrading are $1.8M - $2.8M per hardfork. CMv2 introduces accountability mechanisms, economic incentives, and operational flexibility, requiring a stake transfer of ~$25B TVL from CMv1 to CMv2 in two consecutive stages.
