been thinking about this a lot: decentralization is a long-term game. the church controlled all written knowledge for around 1000 years, with no more than a few thousand manuscripts in circulation. then gutenberg happened, and within the first 50 years of the press, the number of books hit 9 million copies. today, the books market is around $95bn, which is around 3.8% of amazon's giant market cap 🤯
so, decentralize... centralize... decentralize... and the loop goes on and on
the best sign of nostr's success right now might be people complaining it's becoming too centralized
for 1400 years, geocentrism ruled as the centralized model of the universe. when copernicus introduced heliocentrism, it took another 200 years before people finally reached full acceptance.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
creationism dominated understanding of life's origin for 2000 years, then darwin happened. stay calm, stack sats, #grownostr
the big bang: ultimate decentralization in just 0.00000000000000000000000000000001 sec
before quantum physics, reality was centralized. now? distributed across probabilities
