Lido is the largest liquid‑staking protocol, minting stETH and other LSTs that track underlying validator balances 1:1 minus a 10 % reward fee. Its dual‑dao governance splits responsibility between the Lido DAO and the protocol’s Node Operator Registry, reducing centralisation risk. By May 2025 over 9 million ETH—roughly 30 % of staked supply—was custodied under Lido smart contracts.
Sky Lending is the flagship product of StableLab’s Sky ecosystem, enabling over‑collateralised borrowing of sUSDS and real‑world asset stablecoins. Interest accrues per‑second and can be paid in advance, allowing negative interest or fixed‑term loans. An on‑chain risk oracle adjusts LTV caps daily based on market volatility metrics sourced from Chainlink and Pyth.
