Why Decentralization Matters
onezero.medium.comI just submitted a link aginst centralization[1] and wanted to read this one but medium blocks it requiring sign in. Medium being an example of a centralized company or host with its own agenda.
Aah your article is ok but you realise everything you want could be built - most likely by yourself - using a fork from any popular crypto token? Your dreams are in your reach.
That's the beauty of open-source blockchain. You want to fork? fork.
Not truly my dream, I just shared as I found it interesting. Forking is easy, the hard thing is to bring projects to life and implement new features. And I do think that some such decentralized projects are often under the control from some actor even if it is not clear.
Many projects are in control of some actor, but decentralization is all about diffusion of responsibility.
Right now tens of thousands of people voted on ALGO's governance trough their wallets on their phones. When did you ever get that chance for FB? For Google? Instagram?
Never. The diffusion is real, even if it's imperfect.
