Merge byline evidence

there's basically a handful of different things that results in something being truly censorship resistant centralized or not it part of it is the whole proof of work first proof of stake thing but then it also comes down to the the ease or difficulty running a full node as a guest on the Brad Mills podcast macro analyst and investor Lynn Alden gave her take on several topics including the fundamental flaws of ethereum and what she is looking for in her investment decisions moving into 2023. at the time of writing ethereum is trading for one thousand six hundred seven dollars down 17 in the past seven days despite being down over the past week the sentiment around ethereum has been overwhelmingly positive as It prepares for its move from proof of work to proof of stake the merge is arguably considered one of the most important technological upgrades in the history of crypto naysayers and Skeptics are pointing out that the much anticipated upgrade will create new participants called builders in the blockchain ecosystem a move that risks altering the power structure under the current system miners pluck transactions out of a special data pool and arrange them into blocks that are added to the blockchain the miners are being eliminated as part of a plan to reduce energy consumption this change could potentially make ethereum more centralized at least initially when Alden chimed in with her views as she believes the centralization of ethereum is one of a few fundamental flaws for the second leading crypto but before we listen to Lynn if you're not subscribed make sure to hit the Subscribe Button as we put out daily content to keep you up to date on the current market uh that's another thing that came up recently regarding ethereum's design is that if it's hard to run a node if there's low percentages of running nodes which is which is you know technically true for both ecosystems you know not many people run nodes but it's much less so in ethereum because it's much harder to run a node and so they rely on these external uh you know node infrastructure providers that are you know in in the cloud and then can just uh you know censor whatever they want and so you know for anyone other than a power user ethereum's already essentially uh centralized and and the threshold for being a power user is higher in ethereum than in Bitcoin uh and I think that's it's probably going to get that divide's probably going to grow over time I mean you can imagine you know imagine 10 years of this uh how how more complex would it be to run an ethereum node than a Bitcoin node so there's that aspect and then there's also you know if the block blockchain is inherently designed to do something else so so Bitcoin is inherently designed to be pretty much self-referential you know you can...
