I am curious, fellow Twitter people, many of whom are into blockchain stuff: has anything about this argument changed in the last 2 years? That is (aside from cryptocurrency) are there any industries or government functions that have become greatly decentralized using blockchain?
In 2018 the blockchain/decentralization story fell apart. For example, a study of 43 use cases found a 0% success rate. theregister.co.uk/2018/11/30…
Let's talk about some mistaken assumptions about decentralization that led to the blockchain hype, and what we can learn from them.

Well, back to Epic. I'm 30 notes behind."
