- toine_toine 8y ago> Who got the $5 million? The foundation to fund development (which they kept in Ether so is much more valuable than $5million when the sale happened). He's right, it's a protocol. There is no method for them to take a cut. The protocol gives the fees to the REP holders who report the outcome by staking their REP tokens.
