The revenue of Lido protocol mainly comes from two parts: consensus layer revenue and execution layer revenue. Consensus layer revenue refers to the PoS incremental revenue of the Ethernet network, for the Ethernet network, this part of the expenditure is paid to maintain the consensus of the network, so it is called the consensus layer revenue, which is relatively fixed (the orange part of the figure below); and the execution layer revenue includes the priority fee paid by the users and the MEV (on the analysis of the execution layer revenue, readers can go to the previous article of Mint Ventures' previous post to learn more), which is not paid by the Ether network, but by users in the process of executing transactions (or indirectly), and which fluctuates with the heat of the chain.
