CoinVoice recently learned that on July 5, according to Cointelegraph, Dmitry Gusakov, the head of community staking of the liquidity staking protocol Lido, accused the Ethereum liquidity staking protocol Rocket Pool of being too centralized and said that the Rocket Pool contract is controlled by the team and the team is allowed to change it. Any parameter and call to any method means that Rocket Pool developers can increase the inflation rate to an arbitrarily large percentage, or increase the fee up to 100%. Gusakov claimed that this vulnerability does not exist in Lido’s contracts because in Lido these actions are “completely controlled by LidoDAO, a decentralized autonomous organization.”

Waq, a member of Rocket Pool’s grant management committee, responded to the allegation, saying that the team was aware of the vulnerability and would fix it in the future. Waq accused the Lido team of trying to take credit for discovering a known issue.

Jasper.lens, community advocate at Rocket Pool, said: “The community is aware of this centralization issue and will fix it in the upcoming Saturn upgrade. This problem occurred while the DAO voting system was still being designed and tested. The team decided not to allow the DAO to vote on the chain during the initial testing phase. The testing is now complete, and the upcoming Saturn upgrade is to fix this vulnerability.” [Original link]
