Lido DAO is a liquid staking protocol that lets users stake Ethereum while keeping liquidity through stETH, while LDO tokens are used to vote on protocol upgrades.
LDO price depends on Ethereum staking growth, DeFi demand for stETH, governance upgrades, and new initiatives like NEST, stVaults, and RWA integrations.
LDO could trade between $0.19 and $3.18 in 2026 if liquid staking demand grows and Lido improves value capture for token holders.
By 2030, LDO could reach around $15.42 if Lido maintains dominance in Ethereum liquid staking and expands into institutional and RWA integrations.
