At a certain size every system takes on a life of its own. The problem with centralized systems is that changes in those system are in a sense too easy, and that means once bad people get power in those systems, the system itself becomes evil.

The virtue of decentralized systems is that it doesn't have this vulnerability.

No one could game a decentralized system.

As long as it remains decentralized *enough*

We will never know world peace, until three people can simultaneously look each other straight in the eye.

Absolutely agree! Centralized systems inevitably become corrupt because power accumulates too easily, and once it’s in the wrong hands, the entire system bends to their will.

Decentralization removes that single point of failure—no ruler, no gatekeeper, just rules enforced by code and consensus. It’s resilience by design. That’s why decentralized networks are the future. Freedom, security, and resistance to corruption all in one. Couldn’t have said it better!
