What's happening in this block?

Hi Guys

Can somebody please explain to me what's happening in this block. Instead of the generation + Fee's output going to two address (miner and masternode) the output is going to many many addresses, each receiving a very small amount of DASH except one receiving 2.09 DASH.

Thank you and Happy New Year.

My gues is, this is as it says Generation + Fees.
4.18975114 DASH Generation + Fees

Small amounts are going to multiple miners (pool) and 2.09 to masternode.

edit: typo and added (pool).

I didn't know more than one miner could be paid. It doesn't make sense because mining is a competition with one winner per block so surely there should be only one payment. Am I missing something?

Ah ok now it makes sense... Didn't realise that was shared at the protocol level
