Decentralization means one thing to me:

Freedom

We all live in a centralized world where power and money are concentrated in the hands of a few people or a few institutions.
Blockchain is the greatest technological innovation of the last 12 years and is born from an unbridled desire for freedom. It borns from the desire to break the oppressive chains of centralization.


What do you think are the fundamental building blocks of blockchain?

The fundamental building blocks of the blockchain are:

Decentralization: is the principle on which the idea of ​​blockchain is based. The information is not stored in one place, on a single server but is distributed and known by all the nodes that make up the blockchain.

Security: decentralizing information allows you to have a very high degree of security. If a node is compromised the information is not lost as it is contained in all the other nodes.
For example, if we write and save a simple word file on our home PC and our PC explodes we have lost everything. If we consider as an example that our pc is a node of a blockchain then we will not be worried at all, the information of our file will be kept in every node of the block chain.

Transparency: All information is available and visible to all blockchain participants.

Speed ​​and Convenience: all transactions are much faster and much less expensive than a centralized structure.
For example, on Steem transactions have a cost of 0.

Immutability: all information is immutable, it is stored and cannot be changed and this guarantees that the information is reliable and truthful.
For example, the application of the blockchain could eliminate the problem of fake news.


What does decentralization mean to you, is it important, why?

It is important because where there is a strong centralization of decision-making power, of money or of information, there is no freedom, there is no democracy and there is no well-being.

To understand the importance of decentralization, just think of the examples that history has given us.
Think of any dictatorial regime present or past.

Is there an example of dictatorship or regime that has brought real well-being to a country or people? No and only a fanatic could say otherwise.

Here is blockchain is a form of digital democracy.


What are your thoughts on blockchain and decentralization?


I think blockchain is a concrete application of the principle of decentralization and I think it is a good example of how many benefits a decentralized structure brings with it.

I also think that centralized powers such as banks will try in every way to counter the spread of the principle of decentralization.
Maybe they will adopt the blockchain to simplify internal processes but will always fight against the principle of decentralization.

Or the strong and centralized powers will try to create apparently decentralized "hybrid" blockchains with for example private nodes.
An example is Libra the crypto conceived by Facebook.

Can a decentralized blockchain be centralized?

Yes unfortunately. And Justin Sun's attempt to centralize Steem (fortunately failed) is proof of this.

If a blockchain is small and has few nodes, it is consequently more fragile and easily attackable.

The struggle between centralization and decentralization will be a tough and long struggle but I know which side to stand on, from the side of freedom.

La Decentralizzazione significa per me una sola cosa:

Libertà

Viviamo tutti in un mondo centralizzato dove il potere, i soldi sono concentrati nelle mani di poche persone o di poche istituzioni.
La Blockchain è la più grande innovazione tecnologica degli ultimi anni e nasce da una sfrenata voglia di libertà. Nasce dalla voglia di spezzare le catene opprimenti della centralizzazione.


Quali pensi siano i mattoni fondamentali della blockchain?

I mattoni fondamentali della blockchain sono:

Decentralizzazione: è il principio su cui si fonda l'idea di blockchain. Le informazioni non sono conservate in un unico posto, in un unico server ma sono distribuite e conosciute da tutti i nodi che formano la blockchain.

Sicurezza: decentralizzare le informazioni permette di avere un altissimo grado di sicurezza. Se un nodo viene compromesso le informazioni non si perdono poichè sono contenute in tutti gli altri nodi.
Ad esempio se noi scriviamo e salviamo un semplice file word sul nostro pc di casa e il nostro pc esplode abbiamo perso tutto. Se consideriamo a titolo di esempio che il nostro pc è un nodo di una blockchain allora non saremo per niente preoccupati, le informazioni del nostro file saranno conservate in ogni nodo della catena a blocchi.

Trasparenza: Tutte le informazioni sono consultabili e visibili a tutti i partecipanti della blockchain.

Velocità e convenienza: tutte le transazioni sono molto più veloci e molto meno costose rispetto ad una struttura centralizzata.
Ad esempio su Steem le transazioni hanno un costo 0.

Immutabilità: tutte le informazioni sono immutabili, vengono memorizzate e non possono essere modificate e questo garantisce che le informazioni siano attendibili e veritiere.


Cosa significa per te il decentramento, è importante, perché?

E' importante perchè dove c'è un forte accentramento di potere decisionale, di soldi o di informazioni non c'è libertà, non c'è democrazia e non c'è benessere.

Per capire l'importanza della decentralizzazione basta pensare agli esempi che la storia ci ha fornito.
Pensiamo ad un qualsiasi regime dittatoriale presente o passato.

C'è un esempio di dittatura o regime che abbia portato un reale benessere ad un paese o ad un popolo? No e solo un fanatico potrebbe dire il contrario.

Ecco la blockchain è una forma di democrazia digitale.


Cosa ne pensi di blockchain e decentralizzazione?


Penso che la blockchain sia una applicazione concreta del principio di decentralizzazione e penso che sia un valido esempio di quanti benefici porta con sè una struttura decentralizzata.

Penso anche che i poteri centralizzati come le banche cercheranno in tutti i modi di contrastare la diffusione della blockchain.

Penso anche che i poteri forti e centralizzati cercheranno di creare blockchain "ibride" apparentemente decentralizzate con ad esempio nodi privati.
Un esempio è Libra la crypto pensata da Facebook.

Una blockchain decentralizzata può essere centralizzata?

Purtroppo si. E il tentativo di Justin Sun di centralizzare Steem (fortunatamente fallito) ne è una prova.

Più una blockchain è piccola e ha pochi nodi e più è fragile, più è attaccabile.

La lotta tra centralizzazione e decentralizzazione sarà una lotta dura e lunga ma io so bene da quale parte stare, dalla parte della libertà.
