RE: Is Bitcoin Governance Truly Decentralised? Should It Be?

in #bitcoin8 years ago

Though Bitcoin is decentralized, governments won't let it run independently without going it unseen. Bitcoin is a global currency but it would be controlled differently in different political boundaries and nations. We are seeing politics happening in the Bitcoin community too.
The Bitcoin core developers seems to be top notch brains doing great job to the community. I hope the Segwit goes through well but have my fingers crossed for the hardfork. If the hardfork happens creating multiple chains, most people specifically newcomers would get confused with the investment which could hamper Bitcoins image.
Decentralization without community politics would have been better but we humans are selfish and power hungry animals. Hoping for the best.
