What is the difference between decentralized networks and distributed networks, and where on the decentralization spectrum do you sit? |
Distributed networks have more node connections and are more antifragile overall, while decentralized tend to be just robust. The more distributed the better (in architecture, governance and incentives rewards). |

|
Privacy by Default is a goal of the Elixxir Platform. In your opinion, why is Privacy by Default critical for the future of the internet? |
Privacy and decentralization (distribution) should go hand in hand because a lack of privacy by default inevitably makes the network more vulnerable. It is an essential tool against the machinery of the dossier society. As Dan Jeffries says: "The death of cash is the death of freedom. Privacy coins may just be the rebirth of it." |
