Tip of the Spear
<div class="text-justify">

Sometimes, I forget that we at Hive and in crypto in general, are at the *tip of the spear* in terms of the future economy. Not only are we trailblazing explorers, cutting through the jungle of legacy, we are also at the frontier of financial development for a healthier distribution, and taking the brunt of the flack, the ridicule, and the pushback from the controlling forces, so that the average person doesn't have to. 

>**the tip of the spear**
*idiom*
a person or group of people that is the first to do something considered difficult or dangerous, especially a group of soldiers, etc. who are the first to enter a battle area.

> It is a battle, isn't it?

While many people choose sides based on their beliefs and how they identify, ultimately, there are only two sides, two factors, two positions to hold. 

> ## 1. Centralised
>## 2. Decentralised

The centralised position is where we have been for a few thousand years already, with monarchies, religions and governments holding the power to make decisions for us, to decide how we live our lives, and punish us when we do not do what they have decided is the correct way. 

As the quote goes;

>β€œPower tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.”
*Lord Acton*

And what the crypto movement is at the core, is proof that at least for now, there is not absolute power, because we still have the possibility to act for ourselves. It is a tenuous position though, as there are blurred lines between the centralised and decentralised systems in play, the institutions, the governments, the corporations. This means that the legacy economy supporters still have a lot of leverage over the decentralised participants. And, it isn't just the tools and mechanics, but probably the main control point, is that we have been conditioned to believe that there is no alternative but to rely on authority to look after us. 

> No matter how many times they fail.

And *failure* is something they are prone to, because authoritative control will always fail always fail the majority, not only because it will corrupt decisions to serve those in control, but also because there isn't the visibility or nuance to make accurate decisions for millions of different cases and conditions. 

>It is a one size fits all, and the size is best suited to the 0.1%. 

And when one thing fails, it fails big and affects a lot of people. These tend to be those who aren't suited to the economic environment. The 99% will always bear the brunt of failure, because they aren't dressed correctly for the occasion.

And we the decentralised participants, are far from helpful in empowering ourselves, because by nature, decentralised communities are made up of those millions of people with different cases and conditions. This means that aligning resources and activities is challenging, as everyone wants something slightly different. This also is part of the protection mechanism though, because it distributes the eggs into many baskets, so single points of failure are not cataclysmic to the entire community. It is inefficient, and simultaneously *robust.* 

The thing with decentralised systems is that there isn't just one spear tip, there are many. This makes it far more capable to try many things and fail, without having to risk everything. It is an inefficient innovation strategy, with low risk across the ecosystem, even though each comes with significant risk as an individual attempt. 

Most in crypto are unlikely to care much at the moment about the war between centralisation and decentralisation, because they are trying to trade to buy a better life in the centralised world. For some time, this strategy may work, but eventually, all centralised governance and economies collapse. But, while I too want a better economic life, I try to remind myself that there is more at stake here than my own outcomes, because we are all affected by the centralised systematic abuse of the majority. So many of the world's current problems are caused by the centralised systems and the games they play to obtain more control and power, with us as both the financiers, and the cannon fodder left to die on the field of battle.

>In the centralised system, we are slaves, not explorers. 

Maybe decentralised governance and economy is just a story I tell myself to bring meaning to the time and effort and risk exposure. But, isn't the effectiveness of centralisation just a story too, a fairytale that we know doesn't work and always fails? One that breeds corruption and abuse, violence and hate? It isn't a fairy tale at all, is it?

>It s a horror story. 

I think I would rather die on a quest for a better world, than resign myself to a nightmare that I choose not to awake from. To be a tip of a spear for improvement, rather than a wall to protect the status quo.

Even though we are getting to be more established, the FUD machine is still working hard.  Even this morning I saw a news story where they made sure to take every shot at Bitcoin that they could.  I would have thought we were past that point by now, but I guess now.  Have we actually seen a decentralized community work well yet?  Sure, HIVE is great, but there is still a lot of infighting.  I think many people would argue it isn't much different than what we have now if it were translate over to government.

They would. The difference is that we are arguing and can have an impact. We argue everywhere, but it is impotent.

I think decentralization is the future, but even through we are at the tip of the spear I think it's going to take a while to see it come to fruition. Decentralization makes sense, but those with centralized power will do everything they can to stop it.

In my opinion, it's always better to be part of the solution than to just observe. Without the risks, many of the things we know today would not exist. It's always better to strive for something better. It sounds like a dream, but all dreams can come true if we listen to each other (not in a drunken head, haha, although a lot of things are made up and said at exactly the most inappropriate times, like in the bathroom, haha). No matter how strange the thoughts and views of the other person may seem, the aspiration itself is much more significant than the nightmare of reality at the moment.

> Not only are we trailblazing explorers, cutting through the jungle of legacy, we are also at the frontier of financial development for a healthier distribution, and taking the brunt of the flack, the ridicule, and the pushback from the controlling forces, so that the average person doesn't have to.

This is such an apt description - I like that! Enjoy reading this post!

>To be a tip of a spear for improvement, rather than a wall to protect the status quo.

In centralized systems, your maneuvering area is clear, you cannot act as you wish. Since you are under the control of someone, your development is limited. In decentralized systems, your path is open. You can progress as you wish.

Not just HIVE and Bitcoin, we need more tips of the spear to battle against the centrealized power. Crypto should touch people's daily life much more than before so that we wouldn't be dependant on the current financial system.

The problem is that most of the people in public crypto are looking for memecoin success to buy more fiat with.

The angel and the devil in me debate this constantly. 

Crypto is like the financial revolution and a departure from centralized, enslaving finance. Yay!

We are early adopters and the resistance from traditional finance is insurmountable because they make the rules and regulations. Booo!

Power is in the hands of the people and the revolution can happen because we are cutting out the middle man and connecting directly. Yay!

The connection is indirect because all of the technology comes from large corporations who will do everything to keep us as subservient consumers and make their life giving profit. Booo!

It goes back and forth incessantly. I think the best case scenario is trad finance will delay the adoption and acceptance through regulations and fud long enough so buy their controlling stake. Then, the truly decentralized platforms will be stomped into obscurity as the people are divided and  neutered by ponzu schemes of a digital, lawless Wild West. 

The best we can hope for is to sell our stake that we acquired before the big business could and use that profit to fund our lives by our innovative insight. 

Pretty defeatist to look at crypto as a lottery ticket is it not?

Which usually wins?

I asked before reading on... :D

>Pretty defeatist to look at crypto as a lottery ticket is it not?

I guess so. It might be realistic also though. However, I think that the greed at the top is getting to the point that people will literally start fighting back. We are seeing some of that already. 


I liked the narrative btw!
