Fast forward to May, the team scheduled a final on-chain voting process for its V2 update proposal to take place from the 12th-15th following the success of the Ethereum Shapella upgrade in April.
According to a tweet from Lido’s official handle, if the vote on the proposal passes and is successful, the V2 update will go live on May 15th, which is today, and support direct in-protocol stETH: ETH withdrawals and staking router architecture.
So far, the V2 update proposal has been approved as it got the required approval and support rating needed for the update.

The V2 update on the biggest liquid staking platform brings two new core platform features, including a Staking Router and a Withdrawal feature.
The Staking Router feature on the V2 update promotes a diverse and decentralized ecosystem of validators by allowing the admission of new node operators. Using a new modular architectural design and framework, the V2 Staking Router enables anyone to develop on-ramps for node operators ranging from Distributed Validator Technology (DVT), solo stakers, and Distributed Autonomous Organizations (DAOs).
The second feature on the update, withdrawals, will be a game changer for Lido Finance as it enables stakers on the platform who hold stETH to have access to withdrawals at a 1:1 ratio.

LDO trades at the strong resistance area at $2.12, with bulls looking to break that level for more upside movements. However, if bulls fail to break that critical area, the asset could experience a retracement in price and trade lower.
This resistance line and 50 EMA at $2.13 are major hurdles the asset must break to experience a rally.
