Hello and welcome toolanm, I'd welcome you to take a look at a project called MakerDao. That'll help you realize what's possible when trust between individuals or groups of people is no longer a thing to consider. And what's even more amazing is that people are building other services on top of each other, all without middlemen and without permission from anyone!
I'm sure researching blockchain will give a lot of food for thought, I know it has done so for many of us here. There's a reason people say it's like jumping down the rabbit hole, it can consume one for some time as you learn more and think how the future could look like when this technology becomes mainstream.
So good luck in your journey, take your time and enjoy it :)
