There's a mathmetical measure for "decentralization", you can't tell how exactly centralized it is by looking.


Obviously, to be exact, one would have to calculate a number.

However, it is trivial to observe qualitatively that the network is quite centralized, and this is only the larval form. If a meaningful amount of capital was actually involved, it would be much more centralized.
