what's amusing is you say "decentralized" in the same paragraph where you say "but not everyone can run their own node". You justify that by saying "well, not everyone has to". But all you're really doing is contracting yourself.
If not everyone can run a node, then it's not trustless. It's really quite simple and has nothing to do with "banker talking points". I knew that I wanted to be able to validate the chain myself long before the "bankers" were involved in bitcoin. Before bcash was created, adding yet another failed contentious hardfork.
There is a reason that bcash is down 98%. And it's not "talking points". It's because many of us who have studied enough to understand what's important in a monetary network realize that bcash is a centralized garbage shitcoin.
Bitcoin only. You'll learn, one way or the other.
