Comment on Ask HN: Blockchain success stories that did need to be decentralised?

Comments

There is no problem that cannot be solved with a trusted central body that could be solved by using a blockchain. People fundamentally misunderstand - a blockchain doesn't mean you don't have trust, it just means you're trusting something else.

A hypothetical, un-compromisable entity would be more effective than any blockchain simply because the entity wouldn't be beholden by the inherent inefficiency of maintaining decentralized consensus.
