The goal of decentralization is, that there are not just a few big players running the network.
One approach is to change the parameter k described in this article.
By increasing k there will be more stake pools with a lower limit of ada until the stake pool becomes saturated. But this will not prevent opening new stake pools operated by the same big players (Owning stakepool ABC1, ABC2, ABC3, …). So in fact there could be only a couple big players running the network.
Is there an approach to address this issue?
(Sorry for this rookie question, but I am still new to cardano)
I just created a topic about this. See here:
