What is the difference between decentralized networks and distributed networks, and where on the decentralization spectrum do you sit? The decentralized network allows everyone to have the right to vote, and people have the same right to vote. On decentralized networks, people have more privacy and rights, and data ownership belongs to individuals. The data of the centralized network is mastered and controlled by the centralized organization. On a decentralized network, each node operates independently, and the centralized network is started and maintained by an institution or organization. The stability of the decentralized network is higher. I prefer decentralized networks
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. xx network is a quantum-resistant blockchain xx network realizes the privacy protection of user metadata for the first time The xx network constructs a high-performance, high-security privacy network at the bottom, and realizes value transmission, smart contracts, MPC, etc. on top of it, which is the infrastructure of the future decentralized society xx-messager is already available
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? Solving privacy protection on the underlying network is more efficient and safer than solving privacy protection on the application layer. The existing major networks are controlled by large companies. It is almost impossible for them to give up their economic interests and protect users' data privacy through self-discipline. Privacy should be owned and controlled by everyone. This requirement is inconsistent with the current structure of centralized networks. It can only be achieved on decentralized networks. This is the purpose of xxnetwork.
In your opinion, what threat, if any, do quantum computers pose toward decentralized systems? What about centralized systems? The decentralized system is built on a public-private key encryption system. Quantum computers can easily crack the public-private key encryption system, and it is likely to destroy most of the current public chains such as Bitcoin. We don't know when the quantum computer will arrive, but it will definitely come, so we need to prepare for that day and find a decentralized system that can protect our digital assets from quantum computer attacks. Because not all centralized systems use public-private key encryption systems, quantum computers will not have a great impact on them, or centralized systems have more centralized solutions for anti-quantum computers.

If you can buy the required hardware it’s ok :+1:

Provide specs please
