Kintsu Founder StovenLabs tweeted that decentralization is about the network establishing fair mechanisms through competition, rather than an ideology; companies are suited for decision-making and execution, while networks are better for competing around clear goals and transparent incentives. AI can lower participation barriers and serve as a representative, but cannot fix structural issues. In Kintsu, representatives and validators compete for rewards, with APY serving as a transparent scoreboard, and stakers using KSU to select representatives and ensure accountability. He emphasized that not all matters should be decentralized; strategic and capital allocation decisions still require centralized decision-making.
