Odaily News: A team member of the liquidity collateral agreement Lido, posted on social media on July 4th, accusing the competitor Rocket Pool of being too centralized. Dmitry Gusakov, the Staking Lead of the Lido community, stated in the post that the Rocket Pool contract is controlled by the Rocket Pool team, allowing them to change any parameters and invoke any methods. This means that Rocket Pool developers can increase the inflation rate to any percentage or raise fees to a maximum of 100%. Gusakov claims that this vulnerability does not exist in the Lido contract because in Lido, these actions are "completely controlled by the decentralized autonomous organization LidoDAO." It is reported that the RocketStorage contract (Ethereum address starting with 0x1d8f) contains a parameter called "guardian", and many functions in the Rocket Pool contract are also marked as "onlyGuardian", which means they can only be called by the accounts listed in this parameter, currently set to the Rocket Pool deployer's account. Waq, a member of the Rocket Pool allocation management committee, responded to these accusations, stating that the team is aware of this vulnerability and will fix it in the future. Waq accuses the Lido team of trying to take credit for discovering a known issue. (Cointelegraph)
