For those who don’t know. Algorand’s network is going through an update to introduce staking rewards in January.

TDR, known as defi rewards, were a governance controlled pot of funds that would be voted on quarterly.

Voting has been removed, and these rewards are now being gifted to a handful of “defi” platforms. I say defi as these platforms are decentralised via the use of a contract but centralised in bother ownership and decision making.

The largest funds appear to be blocking competition via over incentivising node reward pools.

WTF have I read today. Is this right?
