xrp is very centralized. we need a web of trust cryptocurrency governed by a community.
...
Then we create a discord for example and accept people who prove they are not bots.
The idea just keeps sounding worse the more it is broken down. Bitcoin is a permission-less and trust-less network, losing these two features to prevent a nonexistent threat of fake nodes is taking bitcoin several steps back in terms of decentralization. Running on a centralized platform like discord effectively centralizes the network.

You do not need to fix what is not broken.
