Guide: Using Lido's stETH on 1inch
Today we are pleased to announce an expansion of the Lido stETH liquidity incentive program designed to streamline the liquidity of our staked ETH token.
In line with the pools launched earlier on Balancer and Sushi, the main purpose of this new pool incentive are to boost stETH productivity across DeFi, remove blockers for future integrations and allow Lido to get a more sustainable and reliable price feed. You can find the original proposal here.
For the first month, a double reward program of 200,000 LDO and 200,000 1INCH tokens will be allocated to LPs on the stETH/DAI pool. The 1inch stETH-DAI program kicks off on September 24th at 11.00 AM CET and will run for a period of 4 weeks.
To get started earning rewards, visit app.1inch.io.
