I like that Trump is considering pardoning the Samourai devs, but we're trending to be dependent on centralization to solve problems.
Discussion
Pardons are just a Band-Aid on centralization.
Real change comes from building systems that don’t rely on mercy.
Real change occurs from taking action when authority attempts to prevent digital currency from remaining private as it always has been. doesn't matter that it resulted from an imperfect system that will come later.
How is this an indication of centralization? Just means a decentralized version of their sevices needs to be built
Sure, but let's push hard for this one, as the seemingly natural right to evolve privacy inherent with today's paper and coin to native internet currency is a huge 'then they fight you' moment while we're fatigued by spam wars
But where did the problem come from in the first place?
I guess the decentralized approach would be to bust them out of prison 😄
