In 2023 non-blockchain decentralized technologies will leave web3 in the dustbin of history.

I still think there are major and fundamental economic and social barriers to truly decentralized tech, but to the extent that we get decentralized anything it will be without blockchains.

@seldo is RSS / SMTP the type of thing you're talking about, or is there a new hot way to do decentralized?

There is a lot of discussion around Spritely. I need to explore it more.

@seldo Agreed. I think there's a good argument that a blockchain shouldn't really be called "decentralised". There is a centre, it just moves around a lot. Whoever successfully adds a block to the chain is the centre.

@seldo Blockchain is a single linear chain - it's not many independent chains that influence each other but run independently in parallel.
