Whats the nexus between centralization and ability to refund? Regardless of centralization i can cancel my credit card to stop you from clawing back an optimistic refund, regardless of centralization the protocol could force a waiting period before withdrawing optimistically refunded monies, etc.
- acapybara 4y agoThere's any number of ways to solve the problem of refunds. Escrow contracts come to mind. The only question is what kind of rules/mediation we'd want to implement.
