Did anyone read this article in the NYtimes today? I personally had a good laugh because I would love to know how they are going to achieve a truly decentralized cryptocurrency. I could see them incorporating an incentivization system into their platforms but not create a truly decentralized crypto. The only 'stable' coin project that I am aware that is decentralized and is said to succeed where Bitcoin hasn't is Ampleforth due to their elastic supply protocol. Are there any others?



I don't think they are committed to make a decentralized cryptocurrency or decentralized platform, they already have a huge foundation as both platform and company, they just simply want to adopt blockchain technology. The same as Ripple and some other "fake" decentralized platforms.
