继 11 月份社区投票批准后,Lido 已正式开始逐步淘汰其在 Polygon 权益证明 (PoS) 链上的质押服务。这一决定标志着该协议运营的重大转变,该协议此前允许用户质押 Polygon 的MATIC代币,以换取称为“静态”的流动性质押代币。
根据 defi 平台的一篇博客文章defi服务于周一开始停止。 Lido 通知用户,他们可以在 2025 年 6 月 16 日之前提取资金。协议规定,在此截止日期之后,提款将只能通过浏览器工具进行。
此外,2025年1月15日至1月22日期间,Lido在Polygon上的操作将暂时暂停,这意味着用户在此期间将无法提取质押资产。
经过 Lido DAO 内部的广泛讨论和社区投票后,Lido 决定逐步停止其在 Polygon PoS 网络上的服务。在博文中,Lido Finance 团队解释说,此举是由于 LDO 代币持有者的压倒性支持而促成的,99% 的选民支持该提案。
此次投票考虑了两项关键提案:一项是停止 Polygon 质押服务,另一项是重新评估协议中间件的经济模型。

The team mentioned that several factors led to Lido’s decision to wind down its Polygon staking offering. The announcement cited limited user adoption, insufficient rewards, and the resource-intensive nature of maintaining the service as significant challenges.
The announcement also highlighted the changing dynamics of the ecosystem, noting that the demand for liquid staking solutions on the Polygon PoS network had diminished. This decline in demand ultimately affected Lido’s ability to position itself as a foundational defi building block on the network.
The blog post further pointed to the development of alternative liquid staking solutions within the Polygon ecosystem as a contributing factor to the decision. These alternative solutions, coupled with the smaller-than-expected growth of the Polygon PoS ecosystem, reduced the viability of Lido’s service on the chain.
The development team acknowledged that Lido’s focus has increasingly shifted toward Ethereum. The DAO recently approved a new initiative to launch a “community staking module” designed to make Ethereum solo staking more accessible.
This initiative is part of a broader strategy to enhance the inclusivity of Ethereum’s staking ecosystem and better meet the demands of Lido’s user base.
Lido’s exit from Polygon is not the first instance of the protocol retreating from a blockchain. In 2023, LDO’s DAO approved the discontinuation of its Solana staking service after the protocol experienced losses of $484,000, which significantly outweighed its $220,000 in revenue from the Solana network.
The decision to exit Solana reflected similar challenges in user adoption and resource allocation, as well as the evolving dynamics of the blockchain and defi space.
Aave, one of the largest lending protocols on Polygon, has also proposed ceasing operations on the network due to concerns over an upcoming review of the risk profile of bridged assets.
On December 13, Aave founder Marc Zeller introduced the proposal, responding to Polygon’s governance request to use over $1 billion in stablecoin reserves to farm assets on other protocols. The proposal highlighted unease among defi projects about the evolving governance and risk factors within the Polygon ecosystem.
At press time, LDO remains the largest liquid staking protocol for Ethereum, with approximately $39.7 billion in TVL, per DefiLlama data. The protocol continues to dominate the Ethereum liquid staking market ahead of the likes of Ether.fi and Rocketpool.
