Lido brings one-transaction ETH staking to Arbitrum, Base, Linea and Optimism

Layer 2 users can now stake ETH through Lido's main interface and receive wstETH instantly, while bridging happens behind the scenes On October 15, 2026, Lido announced direct ETH staking from four Ethereum Layer 2 networks: Arbitrum , Base, Linea , and Optimism . The feature lives in its main interface at stake.lido.fi, and users on those chains can stake in a single transaction and receive wrapped staked ETH, or wstETH, right away. You deposit ETH on your Layer 2 of choice, and wstETH arrives in your wallet from a liquidity pool that lives on that same network. Deposited ETH is bridged to Ethereum mainnet, where Lido stakes it and mints staked ETH, known as stETH.
