If decentralization is so awesome then why are most decentralized coins failing?  Last I check Ripple is heavily centralized and #2 and it continues to go up, while everything else is going down.

Do customers of PayPal and Stripe complain about those companies' centralization?  Hardly..  this obsession with centralized has a lot to  do with this libertarian streak in cryptos but, at the same time, somebody like Jackson Palmer is correct in that those libertarians are likely holding back the blockchain technology with all of their unnecessary politics.
