As a not well off person with a gaming computer with power included in my rent, I don’t have 50,000$.

Shrinking the number of people with the financial means to contribute doesn’t seem like it’s going to result in decentralization.

Right but you can't afford to buy ASICs either so from your point of view the situation hasn't really changed. The chance of you ever being able to mine an ETH block with your gaming PC is negligable.

I’ve made .2 eth in under a year.
