Proposal: Update Interim Gen-1 Node Provider Remuneration After 48 months

[Lorimer]

Thanks @katiep, my understanding is that it’s driven by the IC Target Topology. The rationale for this topology with respect to NPs is given here →

Problem statement & goal

The IC runs on physical node machines. By engaging with numerous, independent node providers, the IC ensures robust decentralization. Such an approach mitigates risks associated with single points of failure, centralized control, and potential censorship.

Am I correct in understanding the limit is to ensure that no more then 42 nodes are handled by the same independent entity?
