The cons of centralization are significant. The decentralization narrative spawned because the world has become increasingly centralized. It's a balancing force.

Sure, both centralization and decentralization have pros and cons. But the momentum driving web3 and crypto isn't some societal push-back against the common enemy of the centralized internet, it's almost entirely a product of venture capital seeking ROI.
