Decentralization
A system where no single entity controls the network — decisions and data are spread across many participants.
🌐 Many nodes connected as equals, with no central point of control
🌱 In Blockchain Botany
Just like a community-run greenhouse, blockchains work without a central authority!
🌍 In the real world
Traditional banks are centralized — one company controls your account. On a blockchain, thousands of computers share that responsibility so no single party can block or alter your transactions.
The best way to understand Decentralization is to experience it. Blockchain Botany teaches this concept through hands-on gameplay — no real cryptocurrency involved.
