Lido's Community Staking Module just hit a milestone worth talking about. Over 500 operators are now running validators through CSM, collectively securing roughly 1% of all ETH currently staked on the network.

That 1% might sound modest, but it's enough to make CSM the 9th largest staking pool in the Ethereum ecosystem. Not bad for a relatively new entry designed to decentralize node operations.

The trajectory? Still climbing.

500 validator nodes are running, and just 1% of the staking amount can get you into the top 9 pools? What does this indicate? It shows that there is indeed an issue with concentration at the top of the entire ecosystem. The decentralization logic of CSM holds up, but the real test lies in whether node stability and long-term operational experience can keep up.

Lido is really taking a decentralized approach this time. With a scale of over 500 operators, that's already quite substantial. This trend looks promising.

It takes 500 node operators to control 1%. The pace of decentralization is a bit slow.
