What are decentralized systems?

A decentralized system is like a group of friends who all share a toy box, no one person has control over it.

Imagine you and your friends each have a bag of toys. Instead of letting one friend decide which toy everyone gets to play with, you all agree on the rules together. So when someone wants a toy, they just check the rules and pick one from the shared box. No need for a leader, it’s all fair and fun!

Think about how you and your classmates work on a group project at school. If everyone does their part, no one person has to do everything. That’s like a decentralized system, everyone contributes, and the job gets done without needing someone to tell them what to do.

In some systems, there's a boss who makes all the decisions. But in a decentralized system, it's more like a team where everyone has a say. You don’t need one person to make everything happen, you just need to agree on how things work together!
