Decentralization and centralization are architectures at two ends of digital asset network design. Blockchain design choices fall along a spectrum. This white paper examines the tradeoffs in that spectrum across auditability, security, governance, and ownership. It considers three blockchain networks (Bitcoin, Solana, and Ethereum), focusing on five additional variables: ▪️ Node Participation and Accessibility ▪️ Decentralization of Validator and Issuer ▪️ Geographic Concentration ▪️ Governance Participation and Control ▪️ Distribution of Ownership https://www.ark-invest.com/white-papers/the-decentralized-spectrum-design-tradeoffs-in-digital-assets(ARK Invest)
