That is one thing that may turn some people off from ETN, is that there are some aspects that are centralized, one big example is the mobile miner.
I would also point out that ETN is a DECENTRALIZED blockchain.
The balance between the two, and getting the best of both worlds, is what I believe will one of the main factors that catapult Electroneum to cryptos first case of true mass adoption.
I get where you are coming from, but that's not how things work.
Either a project is decentralized or centralized, you can't be both in 1 project, easy as that.
And you can't split a project neither by saying the blockchain is decentralized but everything else is centralized, that's not how decentralized things work, seriously not.
To compare here an example: You can't be a non profit foundation and a profit coroporation in the same time by saying donations and volunteer work is done by the foundation part of our project and the profit making is done by the corporated part of the project. While your argument "getting the best of both worlds" holds true in theory, in practice it's just pure centralized, easy as that.
As soon as you have 1 centralized factor the others don't matter anymore.... And actually this factor is the "head", the most important factor of the whole project.
Feel free to correct me if i miss something.
