Change is constant and despite being advocates of whole decentralization, we'll see these projects go near to the favor of the government instead of going with what the people requires.
Do you think there's hope for PoS to become decentralized again? If not, why? Can we blame governments and VCs for the path PoS has taken lately? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. 
There could be some hope but to whom? to what project? ETH is the most popular of them all and this is giving them the idea that if they go with this path, the government wouldn't be so harsh to the policies that they'll go through against them.
