Openness, not Decentralization.


That’s what people want.


The whole point of decentralized models is non-excludability/censorship resistance.


When people say decentralization, that’s what they mean, but most are unaware.


You can have decentralization and lose openness.





permissionlessness = self-sufficiency, and openness.

open = non-excludability

self-sufficiency = pays for itself

what trustless means in the Bitcoin context ("no trusted third parties").

money that can be trusted bc is permissionless (open + self-sufficient)
