No. The issue is any post launch decisions made by any means other than chain splits like bitcoin cash violates token some buyers expectations. So a network must be committed to immutability or it is fundamentally governed by minority of influencers. Governance isn’t bad, it has a place. The problem is those who want every solution to solve every problem

The purpose of bp is to decentralize decisions on protocol updates and censorship resistance and generally scaling trx processing.

Regarding the BEOS model of semi centralization/governance (BEOS holders still vote with their stake):

Chains can be centralized and have value. Especially in a multichain world.

Centralized chains in good hands can grow faster and carry on creators vision.

Decentralized chains slow to a crawl.

My point is don’t hate on centralized systems unless they become monopoly scale.

This. Plus with public accountability .

If you want real companies doing mass adoption scale things with real investors under government regulation then they need control over the platform that they build.

Basically people don’t want to go to jail
So hating them for creating something is misguided

I think we need systems that are more decentralized than bitcoin, eos, and eth. I also think we need more centralized solutions too. I’m working toward enabling both sides to scale.
