​About the workshop

​EthPillar is an automation tool for running Ethereum validators, and can be used to rapidly configure your setup to join the Lido Community Staking Module (CSM).

​The Lido CSM greatly reduces the collateral required to run ETH validators from 32 ETH to just 1.5 ETH/stETH, while amplifying staking rewards by 2.3x organically.

​Join the Lido Community Lifeguards for a 1 hour hands-on online workshop learn how to use EthPillar modularly.

• ​New solo stakers: Rapid no-code validator node setup

• ​Existing solo stakers: Use EthPillar run a separate validator client for Lido CSM

​Why join this workshop?

​​​The Lido DAO signalled on a Snapshot vote that it's time for transitioning Lido CSM into the permissionless mode, which means that after the onchain vote, solo stakers may soon need to compete with a much larger user base for allocation of liquidity.

​The actual release date is estimated to be around end of Jan'25 or early Feb'25.

​Hence, the Lido Community Lifeguards want to make sure all existing solo stakers have had their chance to participate in the CSM before non-solo stakers or even institutions enter the fray.

​About Ethpillar

​EthPillar was created by Coincashew, who also wrote one of the earliest and most extensive guides for solo stakers.
