We already have decentralized projects in a way: open-source projects(and work already amazing, and there have been built powerful services and tools). IMO Hive and blockchain technology can improve it by providing tools for organizing ourselves better.
I see hive as a tool for developing open-source projects. Improving in the aspect of managing the money and redirecting the efforts.
We've just built the central channel for communication, now it's time to build those projects.
💡Aannd an idea has come... what about a system like github integrated in hive?
