Thanks for the replies! And when I asked what “decentralized” mean, I was referring to the crypto world and what the community opinion is on this topic, not what google finds and the way the dictionary defines it. But I’m getting what decentralized would mean. And to avoid any confusion, I’m interested in this project because they seem to have been working as a non-profit for the past two years (not a quick buck project.) However, I don’t and probably never like the idea of someone having the absolute power over my account. Banks have that, that’s why we’re here—BitcoinTalk.org.
Somebody was wondering why I was giving this project as an example. Of course I will! Look at France.com’s recent case. So if you own France.eth does that mean you might have to handle it to them just because they feel like it? And you can find hand full of such names, which could lead to more cases like this—wait for someone to buy it, work to make it popular, and when the name becomes valuable they’ll use the rotten court system to hand the name over to them. Thanks but no thanks! This case was just an example, it could also happen with other businesses.
