Nothing you said here more than just saying "trust can't be decentralized". Wealth is stored trust. Critical thinking is stored trust. Democracy is (supposed to be) stored trust. The blockchain provides decently reliable trust in the form of decentralized consensus. The less trustworthy fiat it's tied to has ZERO to do with this conversation. Google "Rai Stones" for proof social consensus works. If you think a bad actor can take over a well thought out, public, technically backed consensus mechanism, then you don't understand how consensus mechanisms like the blockchain work. It's fair enough to say you don't trust it if you don't understand it, but if you (and a bunch of other people like you) don't actually go through those motions, what you (and they) do is end up making a bunch of biased (and conflicted) arguments that people then respond to in a negative way.
