I agree in part to the principal idea of decentralization. We are a long way from the idea that a decentralized BTC client will be run on every person's computer.

It doesn't have to be a full node for everyone. Electrum or another light client is fine and is about as easy to use as any centralized website could be.

You can't get robbed if you own the private keys (well, short of giving them up at gunpoint I guess). That's pretty much all there is to it. But it's harder to make money off a truly decentralized system so there are always going to be shysters like ionomy trying to coax you into giving up the control without fully disclosing the risks.
More concerned with the big mining players having more influence than was originally intended. I do enjoy our conversations, more so when cheap digs are left out. Smiley

Except the miners would be left holding worthless bags if the rest of the ecosystem doesn't follow (e.g. they wouldn't be able to dump the coins etc). Sure they can kill the coin just out of spite but that's still "consensus" in a way. Nothing technically wrong with that. I'd still take an oligopoly that is Bitcoin over a 100%-premined-single-entity-controlled coin any day.

Where's the cheap dig? "Shysters"? I had a more appropriate word but chose a family-friendly replacement. Didn't check the price though.

A cheap dig is you calling the Ionomy team "Shysters" based on nothing but supposition...... you've been saying this for 2 years now !!!!

Suchmoon when your in a hole it's best to stop digging especially when the hole is 2 years deep  Grin
