Decentralization ≠ Censorship-resistance

These words are often thrown together in a barrage of crypto jargon, but it’s important that we understand their meaning separately.

Simply put:

🧱Decentralization is about structure

🎯Censorship-resistance is about outcomes

How many nodes are there?Who controls the keys? Is the protocol permissionless?

These are all questions about decentralization.

On the other hand, censorship-resistance is about answering this question:

What does the system do under pressure?

A censorship-resistant network has to be unstoppable. Decentralization is just the way to get there.

Bitcoin isn’t just decentralized, it’s censorship-resistant.
