You shouldn't expect centralised organisations, be it companies or governments, to be good at implementing or even supporting decentralised solutions. That's just Conway's law [1] at work.
That's why decentralised solutions are shared, implemented bottom-up by communities of practice.
This is also why decentralised solutions are hard to monetise.
TL;DR: Decentralised solutions work best when they are open source, open hardware, run in cooperative ways.
The impact of Conway's law is often underestimated. It's a dilemma. On the one hand you want organisation, authority because it seems to be a good thing. But that always leads to centralisation.
But embracing the chaos, infighting and ego fights that unavoidably comes with decentralised, leaderless approaches feels unnatural. But trust me on this. In the end chaotic systems work better.
I know. It feels weird. Take your time. Let it sink in. Don't "yes, but" immediately, just this one time :)
