If Cryptocurrency is to survive then it needs to not only be decentralized but distributed. One issue we faced in our early days is a small group controlled all of the major forms of communication.

Although I believe this was entirely unintentional, it did make disagreement very one-sided after the split. Platforms and funding disappeared overnight and we had to fight to build and find new ones. This is a topic I covered extensively in an article I published earlier this year.

In this same spirit I’m going to be reducing the control I have over our various communication channels. This will further diversify control in the ETC community; making us more distributed. We’ll start with removing my admin status on Discord, and promoting phyro and OmniEdge to admins.

It takes effort to be properly balanced. Ilya Zomb, Metamorphoses Of Stillness

By the very nature of our community there can’t be a central plan here but my own personal plan for this is to:

Prefer long term independent community members over organizations.

Have a fair balance of known and pseudonymous identities; for accountability and resilience respectively.

Trend overlap between platforms towards zero.

Onwards and upwards towards a more resilient and distributed Ethereum Classic community!
