Moore’s Law (cheaper/faster/better hardware over time) makes decentralization possible. It’s cheap to get a 1TB SSD now. In the future, cheap 10TB or 100TB SSDs will be commonplace. And the processors and memory will also be fast and cheap. There will be no reason to not include all that cheap and abundant storage and computing power in home routers, entertainment consoles, cable boxes, etc.

All the high performance and big data stuff will still be in data centers, but everyone will be able to store their own personal stuff (e.g., financial transactions, Bitcoin balance/blockchain, social media data, family photos/videos) locally.
