Universities have working paper series, generally.
However, Arvix and co. are a centralized platform, and there are lot of scale benefits (for everyone) in using such as platform - which is why everyone publishes there.
In that sense, decentralized working paper series are not a solution.
However, the system can be "decentralized" in terms of control, and run much more efficient with greater consumer benefit.
