Last week, Larry Sanger, co-founder of Wikipedia and information director of Everipedia's blockchain project, expressed his dissatisfaction with the fact that the EOS network is actually controlled by Chinese investors. This, he said, prevents the creation of decentralized applications based on it.
"How would the EOS be created if it weren't for me? - Li Xiaolay wrote.
Xiaolai reported that he invested in Block.One, a company developing EOS, a few years ago and financed the program four times. The investor also noted that it should not be confused with Norman Bethune, a Canadian surgeon who helped Chinese Communists fight Japan and one of the most respected foreigners in China. Xiaolai says he expects to receive his due support for the project and is not funding it for altruistic reasons, so he finds comments on the domination of the "Chinese oligarchy" in the EOS system inappropriate.
"Would Everipedia have been successfully created if it hadn't been for a man like me? - He added.
The president and co-founder of Everipedia, Sam Kazemian, in turn, said that none of his team is going to leave the project. According to him, Senger just wanted to emphasize a certain feature in the EOS management structure, but did not try to hurt any community, especially Chinese users who actively support the project. He also confirmed that Everipedia has no plans to abandon the EOS protocol.
What do you think should eos be more decentralized? or for strong crypto projects we need centralization.
