Bitcoin: lets make it so a medium grade computer and internet connection by 2008’s midrange standards works. Forever.
Solana: let’s make it so that enthusiast grade computers and internet connectivity by 2024’s high range standard works. Sometimes. But keep pushing.
Is solana even decentralized? I thought it was like ripple. I haven't been paying too much attention though.
There are unaffiliated nodes, you can run your own validator and stake independently.
This decentralizes transaction processing and arbitrary code execution.
Client upgrades and hard forks are largely centralized. This isn’t one and the same with the transaction processing nodes compared to bitcoin.
