| Why do you want to be a node? | i want to get more exposure to crypto world, i wasn't sure if i would be able to run but xx community in telegram was so helpful and they encouraged me to do. althogh, my elder son has experience with PCs and Linux, but later i would like to be dealing that by myself.

| What is the difference between decentralized networks and distributed networks, and where on the decentralization spectrum do you sit? | PS: i took google help to answer this (but thanks for asking now i understand the concept :) distributed network are stil controlled by inviduals who have decision power, in contrast decentralized networks are not controlled by any single decision points but community. |
| As best as you can given currently available information, please describe the value proposition of the xx network platform and how it differs from other current blockchain solutions. | to be honest at this moment i have mostly read about xx only, and i see that their privacy and specialy quantum proof system is the one which i think no one else is offering. I didn't read much about other blockchain so maybe my answer is not that accurate. |
| Privacy by Default is a goal of the xx network Platform. In your opinion, why is Privacy by Default critical for the future of the internet? | what governments and big social media giants had been and have been doing with us is a well known to everyone, such things should stop, we should respect everyone's privacy. For me it's a basic human right. |
| In your opinion, what threat, if any, do quantum computers pose toward decentralized systems? What about centralized systems? | i again took google help: Quantum computers can break the private keys, so a quantum secure system is very much needed. |
innocent & sincere application 
my vote
very honest i like that
Before I can give my support, could you please explain why there seems to be a duplicate application?
