Solana Validators Hijack Governance Vote with Last-Minute Switch

Solana's governance vote has raised questions about decentralization on the network. The first-ever governance vote was held, and two out of three proposals passed with a narrow margin. SGP-0002, which aims to double the disinflation rate, barely cleared the 2/3 threshold after Kraken and Galaxy flipped their votes in the final hours.

The outcome has sparked debate about whether the community truly has a voice or if it's just a validator oligarchy. If a few large validators can swing the vote at the last minute, does this undermine the concept of decentralization?
