The figure is indicative; the exact amount is locked in the order.
One LDO buys 0.000146364 ETH Optimism right now; the other way round, 1 ETH Optimism is 6,832.3 LDO. Market over 24 hours: LDO against ETH Optimism plus 5.77%. The week added minus 4.11%.
The weekly corridor ran from 0.000137516 to 0.000151986 ETH Optimism, a spread of 10.52%. A single order takes 599.7001 to 27,900,000 LDO. In dollars that is roughly $215.03.
The payout leaves in the Optimism network, so the receiving address has to belong to that network. By market cap Lido DAO sits 141th ($299.03 M) and Ethereum 2th ($301.08 B). Daily moves of LDO and ETH over 90 days line up at 0.21 (they travel apart).
Who takes the LDO → ETH Optimism route
- Fuel for OptimismWithout Ethereum nothing moves in Optimism — every transfer and every contract call is paid in it.
- Different basketsDaily moves of LDO and ETH over 90 days line up at 0.21 (they travel apart) — the looser the link, the less a portfolio depends on one coin.
- A road both waysThe ETH Optimism → LDO direction is open too, so going back into LDO takes the same route.

Payout network for ETH
The same ETH goes out in several networks. Rates and lower limits differ, and the fee is charged by the network itself.

How the LDO → ETH Optimism order runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator: orders start at 599.7001 LDO.
- Enter a ETH address in Optimism and a way to reach you.
- Send LDO in Lido DAO for exactly the amount stated in the order.
- Once the network confirms your transfer, Ethereum leaves for your address. The order page tracks every step.
Check this before sending LDO
- The address network is Optimism. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 599.7001 LDO.
- Copy the address whole, then compare the first and last characters after pasting.
- Coins go through an AML check: a flagged transfer can be held until the check is finished.
