Comment on Show HN: My experimental take on a decentralized ledger

Comments

Cool. I really liked the idea of Stellar, but I just cant get over the premined coin distribution. Nice to have a truly decentralized alternative!

What do you like about Stellar? It's not decentralized at all. Being premined is just the icing on the cake.

Stellar is indeed decentralized but not distributed [1]. What I like about Stellar is the concept of gateways and trust. It adds a whole new dimension for transactions.
