Charles Hoskinson's defense of hyperscalers at the Consensus event in Hong Kong in February has sparked discussions about decentralization risks in blockchain computing. According to NS3.AI, while advanced cryptography, multi-party computation (MPC), and confidential computing technologies help minimize data exposure, they do not eliminate the reliance on centralized cloud infrastructure. This ongoing dependence raises concerns about the true decentralization of blockchain systems, as the concentration of cloud services could pose risks to the integrity and resilience of these networks.
