Decentralization and security interact but aren’t strictly proportional. More decentralization (diverse validators, distributed governance) reduces single points of failure and censorship risk, improving resilience. However, a rushed decentralization without mature tooling, audited consensus changes, or robust coordination can introduce security vulnerabilities. Similarly, highly centralized systems can be easier to secure operationally but increase systemic risk from insider compromise. Evaluate node/validator distribution, multisig ownership, upgrade procedures, and incident response capabilities. Security posture depends on protocol maturity, code quality, and operational practices as much as node dispersion. Ideally, decentralization should be implemented gradually with strong security controls and audited governance processes.
