Topic: Is Bitcoin still truly decentralised? - page 2. (Read 1547 times)
We're still good on the decentralization part. The community aspect seems to be lacking with idiots flocking to Ghash.IO
It's still decentralised in my opinion. Unless a mining group takes control of it in some way then it's still decentralized until they do.
It may be not so decentralized as it used to be. Perhaps even that big guys has majority of hashing power in their hands. Is it any way to know that for sure ?
I was just thinking.
With big mining pools, getting bigger and more smaller miners leaving the BTC mining scene and more and more people using online wallets, is BTC still desentralised?
Banks have copies of their ledger in different locations too, but it's owned by one entity. {Is this, the difference?}
Are we moving into a situation, where BTC would be seen as a centralised currency, one of these day?
How many people, still make use of a desktop wallet, with a copy of the blockchain?
Am I the only person, looking at it, in this way? Well correct me, if you think, I am wrong.
