1/7 The Myth of Trustless DeFi
DeFi was built on a simple promise:
→ Code is law
→ No intermediaries
→ Trustless systems
But the reality is clearer:
No financial system removes trust it only relocates it.

2/7 Where Trust Actually Lives
Even in DeFi, trust still exists in layers:
→ smart contract assumptions
→ oracle data feeds
→ governance votes
→ bridge infrastructure
→ execution environments
Trust is not removed it is redistributed across systems.

3/7 The Illusion of Decentralization
Some systems look decentralized but rely on hidden control points:
→ multisigs behind protocols
→ low-participation DAOs
→ upgrade keys and admin roles
→ delayed-response timelocks
Decentralization in appearance, not resilience in reality.
