Is decentralization centralized?

Posted: 22 Dec 2021 02:22 AM PST

Hello friends. Do not be intimidated by the title :) But I am struck by the idea of the utopian nature of the concept of decentralization in modern cryptocurrency.

Do you think cryptocurrency is truly "decentralized" at the moment?

If we turn to history, then bitcoin was originally conceived as absolutely financial freedom and a decentralized payment system, which at the moment do not correspond to the original ideas at all.

(those who disagree can googling mining pools and early coin holders)

Just like most large projects with their own blockchains and technological solutions. Take the acclaimed Solana in 2021. And what did the users get as a result? An unprotected system with many flaws, but nevertheless, such a system is called in our world "decentralized"

After all, the concept of data storage and transmission is not the whole function of decentralization, is it?

I am alarmed by the market trend and that the cryptocurrency is more and more like a stock market with exactly the same problems, where not always technological solutions that try to develop directly decentralized solutions do not receive the necessary publicity and attention. People only care about instant profit, and unfortunately, people see only profit in this, and the original idea fades into the background.

So far I do not quite understand why this is happening, because there are interesting blockchains that somehow put the development of decentralization in the forefront, like Near Protocol. I am absolutely amazed at their blockchain with a sharding system, multi-level DAO, which eradicates the centralization of human factor solutions, and it can be seen that the ideological inspirers and creators of the project really yearn for the transition of our world to a new, decentralized world.

Please share your opinion in the comments <3 I will be glad to talk with you

Blockchain.com Doesn't Actually Delete Your Account

Posted: 22 Dec 2021 12:43 AM PST

WARNING: Blockchain.com's Customer Support's takes ages to respond to requests and doesn't actually do what it promised.

On October 19th, I requested the deletion of my Blockchain account/wallet (an account with no transaction history) from Blockchain's Support Center.

I received the first reply on November 9th, requesting confirmation for the account deletion. I confirmed my intention to permanently delete the account a day later.

Then on November 15th, a support personnel contacted me assuring me that,

As per your request, we [Blockchain] can now delete the personal data that we hold on you; this process will normally take up to 3 working days.

and

Your email address will be removed from our marketing campaigns within a maximum of 5 business days.

I assumed, naturally, that the site would proceed as it promised: deleting my account and stop sending promotional emails.

It wasn't the case.

For weeks afterward, I continued to receive Blockchain's 'marketing campaign' spam emails. And I still am receiving them.

14 business days after November 15, I tried to log into the Blockchain account I requested to be deleted and I could log in using my email and password.

So on December 3rd, I emailed Blockchain's Support asking for an explanation and demanded my account be deleted immediately.

I still haven't receive a reply.

NFT ticketing as the gateway to web3?

Posted: 22 Dec 2021 01:02 AM PST

Introduction

Lately I've seen the term "web3" coming up more and more. I can't entirely wrap my head around it yet, but thanks to this article I've got a pretty good idea on what it does and why it's needed. Basically we want to combine the old decentralized web1 with the centralized but powerful web2, to create their better brother; web3.

But how do you get that started? How do you make people realise the potential of web3? How do you get it adopted by the general public? I recently came across a thread on twitter that suggested NFT ticketing is the entrypoint we've been looking for.

NFT Ticketing

I assume I don't need to explain this sub what an NFT is, but perhaps a little recap on NFT ticketing is in place.

A ticket to an event has basically always been non-fungible; No 2 tickets are exactly the same. The combination of event, artist, venue, timeslot, chair number, serialnumber, you name it, is unique and therefore your ticket is unique. Except for a little thing called a copy machine, which could make an exact (although officially fake) replica of your paper ticket.

That's our cue for NFT tickets, where storing the ticket on a blockchain makes sure there's indeed only 1 ticket of a certain combination of the aforementioned aspects. This gives rise to a lot of other cool possibilities, but I won't go into that here. There's a sub called NFTTickets where you can read more about this usecase.

NFT Ticketing as entrance to web3

Back to the original point; web3. The problem with web3, as mentioned in that thread, is as follows:

But an area that needs significant improvement is the current entrance complexity for the everyday person to get setup and involved.

The statement made is that NFT ticketing could potentially be the bridge for the general public to enter and participate in web3. Or in more fancy wording:

NFT Tickets are an extension of access rights that go above and beyond a traditional ticket by providing a direct inroad into an event organiser or artist's community through Web 3 platforms and protocols.

My question to you

It makes sense to me that, when done correctly, something like NFT tickets could 'lure' in the general public and make them participate in web3 without much of a barrier like a need for understanding.

What do you think about this? Could NFT ticketing be the entrance we were looking for? If yes, why do you think so? If no, why don't you think so and what do you think would be the right entrance?
