Polygon’s Secret Deal: Sending DraftKings Millions to Run Failed Validator

By this point, DraftKings was rolling in MATIC rewards. In eight months, the validator’s token stake had grown 120% to 5,578,691 MATIC ($6.3 million at the time). No other Polygon validator had earned that much for itself over that time. Then again, none of the other validators had been charging 100% commission on so many tokens delegated from Polygon.
