In this post, we analyze Lido operators’ client diversity in the Ethereum consensus layer over time, observing the number of blocks proposed using each client starting from genesis until now. We also give an introduction to what client diversity is, what Lido is, how diversity can be studied, and last but not least, we present our findings on Lido operators.

In this post we analyze the performance of different Ethereum staking pools/operators/stakers during The Merge (migration from Proof of Work to Proof of Stake), taking 12 hours before, and 12 hours after it happened.
