Lido On Soneium
The Lido protocol’s stETH and wstETH are now available on Soneium! Developed by Sony Block Solutions Labs, a Sony Group company, Soneium is an Ethereum Layer 2 blockchain that empowers creators, fans, and communities to protect their rights and connect globally. It is built on Optimism’s OP Stack and is an EVM-Compatible blockchain.
The deployment on Soneium was implemented using Lido protocol Multichain Automaton – a script that streamlines the deployment of stETH and wstETH bridges on OP Stack networks using the reference architecture, without compromising robustness and transparency.

How to Bridge Your stETH or wstETH to Soneium
The Superbridge.app provides a simple way to transfer stETH & wstETH between Ethereum and Soneium. To bridge, follow the steps outlined below:
- Firstly, ensure that your wallet contains stETH or wstETH (wrapped stETH).
- Select Your Networks: Choose Ethereum as the source chain and Soneium as the destination chain in the Superbridge app.
- Approve and Confirm: Review the transaction details, approve the interaction, and confirm the transfer in your wallet.
- Select Your Token: Choose stETH or wstETH from the list of available tokens in the dropdown menu, and choose the amount you wish to transfer to Soneium.
- Connect Your Wallet: Link your Ethereum wallet to the bridge UI and verify that you have enough ETH to cover gas fees.
- Access Superbridge: Navigate to Superbridge.app. It is a popular bridge UI for OP Stack Chains.
Note: Bridging back from Soneium to Ethereum may take up to 7 days. This delay is a standard security feature of the OP Stack, serving as a challenge period to procure secure withdrawal.
Important to note that users don’t need to bridge stETH and wstETH back and forth to use a different token on Soneium.
If you wish to unwrap wstETH into stETH or wrap stETH into wstETH, it can be done easily on the Soneium Mainnet using Lido’s wrap widget. This ensures a straightforward and efficient way for managing your tokens.
