Thanks for sharing! It’s great to read some IBC/Cosmos LST info and I appreciate you pulling parallels into the ETH world, too—there’s so much deep staking experience, research, and innovation in the Tendermint eco that ETH folks should be considering more frequently IMO. Question for you…

Any practical examples of why a LSP would want hold a semi-fungible LSM instead of just initiating unbonding? If Alice is paying Coinbase 15% to stake ATOM, turns that into a LSM, and deposits to LSP, wouldn’t that LSP now be paying CB 15% for Alice’s retail stake (way more than they would usually pay natively)?

Removing unbonding would of course help prop up TVL, and maybe there’s an operator diversity play there, but any real examples of what an LSP might want to actually do with the flexibility LSMs provide?

Main reason would in theory be it’s the simplest option, but in practice yea idt it makes sense to just do that for the LSP It’s mostly useful as short term LSP can be transferred ownership before redelegating
