Lido has launched the 0x02 CSM instance, supporting up to 2048 ETH validators.

On October 24th, Lido launched the 0x02 CSM instance on csm.lido.fi, allowing users to run permissionless validators with a maximum balance of 2048 ETH. Operators do not need to raise their own collateral but must provide bonds, with the first key requiring 32 ETH and subsequent keys requiring 30 ETH each. 0x02 CSM uses a two-queue mechanism, with an initial share cap of 0.01% of Lido Core TVL, and a combined cap of 20% of Lido Core TVL for both modules. Existing operators can continue using 0x01; currently, CSM offers four paths.
