If you've been in #Crypto for a while, maybe popularly since 2017.
Have you yet realised it's not about anything individual, but how it's a network of networks and how that will scale infinitely with the addition of each participant, aka a #gateway. $Qnt
This is nothing dissimilar to how the internet was born, with its physical under sea cables and routers.
You can use the internet for any creative or informative purpose you wish, without caring how that data delivers your outcome.
So you need to stop screaming "centralised", and realise that it's the enablement of a Centralised - Decentralised network of networks.
The value within this is infinite, and it brings change to everything you know.
Namely, the velocity of money.
But that's another day.

Multi platform
Multi protocol
Multi cloud
Agnostic applications with limitless reach and value capture like never before.

Not only is the total addressable market so large, but with enabling a user to control their own data it gives them access horizontally and vertically between all types of use cases.
The 100s of services you've signed up for in a lifetime where you control nothing.

It is a necessity to pivot from this to enable revocation of your credentials, and reduce the risks that are traditional data bases, or honey pots for fraud.
We see this more and more!
It's not only SSI though, the technology behind it expands much further.
