decentralized finance has a place in the present and future of our planet
There is no guarantee that decentralized anything has a place in the future. So far the trends have been depressingly centralizing, whether it's government, finance, manufacturing, or even our great hope, the Internet.

- dmix 8y agoThe costs of centralization is starting to seep into people’s day to day life though. People tend not to act to abstract threats but rather tangible issues. Tech people have been warning about this forever because they have a strong grasp of the consequences and they also better understand what we have (or had) with the internet and other parts of the economy and politics. I’m starting to see far more ‘regular’ people outside of tech concerned about the top down centralization of communication and payment networks.
