    Decentralization is not valuable for its own sake. It is valuable because done well it makes us much less vulnerable: http://nakamotoinstitute.org/trusted-third-parties/ …

        @NickSzabo4 Decentralization for defensive needs, centralization for progressive needs.

        @NickSzabo4 funny how the business model of most Bitcoin startups is being a trusted third party as a service…

        @NickSzabo4 @Piotr14Tra actually that's false. It also has tremendous value in cost. It leverages the excess compute cycles of all devices.

        @NickSzabo4 and not all to be decentralized. A layer of decentralization gives trust and a layer of centralization makes it work well.

        @nickszabo4 @odoudin Odd thing is, TTP or CVP is decentralisation in the minimum. Perhaps it is decentralisation done badly, or captured.
