Odaily Planet Daily reported that Lido co-founder Vasiliy Shapovalov stated on the X platform last weekend: "To ensure long-term sustainability, Lido Labs, the Lido Ecosystem, and the Lido Alliance have made the difficult decision to reduce the size of their contributor team, impacting approximately 15% of their workforce. This decision is not performance-related and is based purely on cost considerations. It is a difficult decision, but one based on long-term resilience. While making such a decision during a market upturn may seem counterintuitive, it demonstrates our unwavering commitment to sustainable growth, operational focus, and alignment with the interests of LDO token holders. Lido is planning for decades to come, and this adjustment will help solidify that foundation."
