Lido DAO $LDO (LDO) continues to lead the liquid staking sector within DeFi, supported by strong infrastructure and growing institutional interest. However, increasing competition and declining market share have placed pressure on its short-term price performance. In 2026, LDO is expected to trade within a moderate range, with upside potential tied to Ethereum staking growth and broader DeFi market recovery.
