A lot of people make the self defeating mistake of equating any form organization as centralization.

The whole reason decentralization works, is because it enables *voluntary and competitive organization,* not because it prevents or is against organization in all forms.

To the contrary, if we don’t organize to build decentralized protocols and marketers, we simply lose. Organization is the point of all of this. A “foundation” or a formal group does not remotely mean control.
Some entrepreneurial mind should create the Association for the Development of Nostr: a formal membership-based entity whose sole purpose is to use it's membership revenue to support the open source development via it's own staff.

Having an entity that is pushing code without being connected to any particular project is essential for decentralization of our own projects.
