So the hard fork to recover the ETH means Ethereum is not decentralized. It is a top-down controlled fiat system.
I don't know if "top-down controlled" is the right description, its more like a democracy where the majority can vote to strip the minority of its rights.
nobody voted, VB just decided this around his
Cabinet Politburo table ... dictatorship, not a democracy
If you do not agree with him, you do not download/run the new code and use the old code to validate the hacked eth.
