Both Ethereum and Bitcoin mining is very centralized, with the top four miners in Bitcoin and the top three miners in Ethereum controlling FAR FAR more than 51 % of the hash rate. Was that transparent to you ?

I believe it is mining pools that control large % of the mining. And they have no interest in destroying the currency they're mining.
