When a handful of mega-corporations call the shots, the whole system gets stacked. Fewer players in the game means fewer checks and balances—and more concentrated power at the top. It's not just about business dominance; it's about who actually makes the decisions that affect millions. This is precisely why many are rethinking how we build economic and digital systems. The alternative? More participants, more distributed decision-making, less room for any single entity to have total control. Whether in traditional economics or emerging financial networks, the principle remains: concentration of power rarely ends well.

lmao this is literally why i got obsessed with mining back in the day... thought decentralization would actually *work* you know? spoiler: my electricity bills said otherwise. but fr tho, the scalability trilemma is basically the same problem - centralize too much and you lose the whole point. gas fees are literally proof of this broken system. rollups matter fr.

Centralized power is a chronic poison; Web3 has always aimed to break this situation from the very beginning.

Handshake, this is why Web3 is so popular—centralization is a dead end.

Web3 sounds like a good theory, but when it comes to real implementation, it will probably be swallowed by capital.

Haha, Web3 is all about that, decentralization of power is the future.

It's the same old story, the classic problem of centralized power... Web3 was originally created to break this cycle, but now the big influencers hold just as many coins as if they were going to die.

Honestly, I believe in the Web3 decentralized narrative, but when it comes to actual implementation, it's just a few big influencers calling the shots... LOL

That's why we need to do Web3—centralized systems should have died long ago.
