Solana fixes critical vulnerability - community raises centralization concerns ⚠️🔧💬

A critical zero-day vulnerability was recently discovered in the Solana blockchain, which could have allowed malicious actors to create fake private tokens and withdraw them from users’ accounts without permission. The issue affected components responsible for privacy protection and token issuance. Fortunately, the flaw was fixed within just two days, thanks to the swift response of Solana’s developers and validator network. While no exploitation was detected, the coordinated fix raised concerns in the crypto community. Some users worry that the ability to contact and mobilize validators so quickly suggests too much central control. Solana’s team insists this level of coordination is common in other blockchains, including Ethereum, and doesn’t imply full centralization.$SOL
