Lily's take is dead on. Self sovereignty is a key component of blockchain's value prop. While many users may not care about self sovereignty today from a theoretical/philosophical standpoint, they absolutely care about what it means in practice for their money We've all had transactions reversed by our banks, freezes on accounts, funds held for 'review' with no timeline... These are features of the current system, where access to your own capital is a privilege granted by intermediaries In a world where corpo chains gain traction, this concept of self sovereignty becomes even more valuable, not less. Curated access and centralized control points will inevitably reproduce the exact dynamics we're supposed to be moving past.
