An interesting precedent occurred with TON (The Open Network) blockchain.
Consulting company Whiterabbit published an [article]( entitled TON Blockchain a group of related whales mined 85% of TON supply.
“▪️96% of the TON supply was distributed to miners between July and August 2020;
▪️At least 85.8% of the supply was mined by a few groups of miners connected with each other and affiliated with TON Foundation;
▪️Funds from these miner groups are used by network validators that control 2/3 of the TON Blockchain PoS consensus”
The article contains an OFFICIAL COMMENT from the blockchain team, which confirms the problem and expresses its willingness to work on further decentralization. TON community also posted the article on all their social networks.
On the one hand the problems are obvious! On the other hand, the team is open to its solution. The news did not significantly affect the price of the coin.
What do you think? Have you encountered similar situations in other blockchains?
