Is the forum decentralized? No, it is not! Is Bitcoin truly decentralized? Do define democracy by the way as this forum is not.
This forum is not decentralized, neither democratic. It is owned by a person, and we are all forced to either use it under their terms, or not use it at all. Bitcoin is truly decentralized, and therefore not democratic. You don't vote for changes in the Bitcoin protocol under the accepted sense of that term.
A decentralized system can't be democratic, because democracy requires a government, which by definition makes the system centralized.
Only existing known legendary users and Hero users will be allowed to vote.
So Bitcointalk defines the voting rules. This means it isn't truly decentralized. Theymos can pop a few Legendary accounts and use those to increase his votes.
That is your point of view and if you think I am parroting then how the hell Bisq was created and why there are BRC20 tokens spamming the network. It is better to encourage a suggestion at your timeline rather trolling.
- Bisq doesn't use the Bitcoin network to do everything, only the trades are settled on-chain. If you use the blockchain to create a decentralized forum, you'll be forced to keep at least the forum posts on-chain, which means it cannot scale.
- BRC20 tokens are worthless trash, and the fools who buy them spend millions of dollars. To give you an analogy, think of forum user who would have to pay thousands of dollars to take part in discussions.
