RE: Hive – How decentralised are we?

in Economics3 years ago

Overall, Hive is considerably more decentralised than mainstream social media such as Facebook and Twitter.

This is one of reasons Hive is my most preferred option. Hive offers an opportunity to earn from your activities but it isn't so for mainstream social media. Also, the issue of censorship and central governance can't be found in the structure of Hive.

More so, Hive is not 100% decentralized as we speak but we see that the level of decentralization increases day by day.

Centralisation of control makes censorship easy. The decision to censor is in the hands of just a few people. They may choose to censor content for their own reasons or they could be easily pressured to do so by Governments. Governments cannot censor Hive. At the most, they can restrict content on DApps. What's on the blockchain is safe.

Good elaboration.

Hive is bring an entirely different structure of social media. I'm certain Hive will record more adoption in the coming years.
