What is Lido DAO (LDO)?
LDO is the governance token of Lido DAO. Lido DAO is a liquid staking protocol which works on the Ethereum blockchain. It enables users to stake their ETH in Ethereum’s beacon chain, which locks the assets. Lido DAO then allows these assets to be liquified by issuing stETH. The purpose of the Lido protocol and stETH is to allow those who’ve staked their ETH to retain some liquidity as their ETH is locked until further upgrades to the Ethereum mainnet are completed. You can buy and sell LDO for any major cryptocurrency – like ETH and XRP – or traditional currency such as Canadian Dollar, US Dollar. Trading cryptocurrencies is like foreign exchange of traditional currencies – you trade LDO for ETH the same way you trade CAD for USD. You can also trade LDO to CAD based on the LDO price.
