Yes that will be extended sometime soon. Since it will be done ahead of time before the contract expires, it will also affect the APR, so I think a post will be made about this. Basically the APR will temporarily decline once the number of days are extended, since the daily rewards are derived from dividing the total rewards by number of days. So for example if the distribution were suddenly set to last 5000 days the reward pool would need to be about 100x larger to have the same APR as the current 50 days. Probably it will be extended into the 1~2 year range for that reason alone, and this will most likely happen within the next few days. Then after some time, the reward pool will be raised back up to match the new time period - just a question of how many people panic in the process, I guess.
