The higher the issuance rate, the more stable the validator reward, but the burden of dilution occurs for non-stakers and long-term holders. 4. Validator concentration and operational risk If the probability of validator selection is proportional to the stake ratio, validators with a large stake can obtain more block production opportunities. This is reasonable for capital efficiency, but validator concentration must be managed in the long term. 5. Ecosystem competition risk Polygon competes with Optimistic rollup...
