People confuse decentralization as a governance goal, and decentralized computing as an implementation choice. You can use decentralized protocols to build highly centralized power structures, and inversely you can use centralized tools to build orgs where power is distributed

With centralised decision systems human decisions can dominate, with decentralised ones you have to rely on machine decisions. And I don't know if it's a good idea to do so in an area that is all about agents (both human and machine) trying to game the system.

So you were talking
#blockchain...:) It's not about replacing the Fed, but about reimagening what data-driven decentralized (consensus-based) algorithms might b better suited for an adaptive economy than "quantitative easing". What are you afraid of? A financial crisis like 2008? -
QE is a fancy way to say "print money". "Blockchain" mechanisms was invented for a very specific task: replace FED. No one want to see reimagined fancy names or algorithm for defining inflation.
