Abstract. One constant refrain in evaluations and reviews of decentralization is that the results are mixed. But given that decentralization is a complex interv

Nearly two years ago, we published our first ebook, A Guide to Marketplaces. Towards the end, we touched briefly on emerging marketplace types and included decentralized marketplaces in the mix. At the time, OpenBazaar was still in beta. Since then, we’ve been closely following the evolution of blockchain technology and looking at the potential impact […]

We can see a truly decentralised web coming that fully realizes the promise and design of the internet. Pryv.io is our contribution to that change.

Classic arguments for decentralization, augmented by ideas about how participation empowers the poor, motivate the widely used approach in foreign aid called community-driven development (CDD). CDD devolves control over the selection, implementation, and financial management of public goods to communities. Until recently, policy enthusiasm has outstripped the evidence. I synthesize findings from randomized controlled trials and find that CDD effectively delivers public goods and modest economic returns at low cost in difficult environments. There is little evidence, however, that CDD transforms local decision making or empowers the poor in any enduring way. Part of this failure may be because some constraints believed to be important—like insufficient social capital—appear not to bind. Others, like exclusive local institutions, are a problem, although not one that CDD remedies. These results present a conundrum: How much participation is enough to safeguard the gains of such extreme decentralization while minimizing the opportunity costs imposed on poor people's time?

Deb Nicholson is worried about the future of our data.They're being stockpiled by organizations whose ability to protect them is diminishing, but whose ability to keep users from accessing or transporting them is increasing. Bit by bit, these data are being centralized--gathered in large repositories outside users' control and sequestered there when competing products or services can't access or read them.

In this contributed article, John Suit, Chief Technology Officer at KODA, Inc., discusses the overall potential of decentralized AI. The future of artificial intelligence will be determined by how much weight we put into collaboration. Fundamentally, collaboration relies on a group of people (or machines) who share their individual knowledge to solve a problem. Decentralized AI is the path forward.
