Anyone else notice how the whole "private and decentralized" thing we signed up for is basically dead? Like, what happened? We went from cypherpunk ideals to KYC everywhere, chain analysis tracking every move, and a handful of VCs controlling half the protocols. Kinda ironic when you think about it.

This is the tragedy of Web3—it only took a few years to go from revolution to compromise.

the pattern recognition's been screaming this for years. watch the wallet clustering data—it's not random distribution, it's deterministic consolidation. the behavioral indicators don't lie. we're observing the accumulation phase, except it's VCs hoarding governance tokens instead of btc. statistically significant shift toward oligarchy, really.

ngl this is exactly why I started doubting this whole thing a long time ago... No matter how good it sounds, it just ends up being tamed by capital, and the VCs are the ones laughing the hardest in the end.

What a fucking irony... The privacy that was hyped up so much back then is now being sold out completely.

NGL, this is just a joke. All the promises made back then have been broken now... VC capital already cashed out on this thing a long time ago.
