Decentralization is a design choice. Our infrastructure is engineered to support a distributed network of nodes running on consumer-grade hardware. MultiversX's architecture is built to be anti-fragile. 🧵👇

@CodeMultiversX @ColombiaStaking Blockchains aren’t just payment rails anymore. They're becoming economic memory systems, storing: – Programs – Ownership – Agreements – Billions & trillions in value

In the physical world, trust is held by institutions: courts, custodians, enforcers. In the new internet economy, the blockchain replaces them all. To succeed in that role, the network must be structurally neutral, physically resilient, and accessible anywhere.

To support a truly independent and decentralized network, blockchain architecture design must consider a number of essential questions: What kind of entities can handle the the necessary hardware? How much energy is required to run a node? How resilient is the network?

MultiversX is engineered to be incredibly energy-efficient and run easily on consumer-grade hardware. The sharded architecture reduces the node load considerably, to the point where a node can be run even on a Raspberry Pi or a phone.

Above all, storing the world's assets onchain requires one thing: Antifragility—the ability to survive failure, pressure, and attempts to control or disrupt. That isn't achieved on rented servers. It happens at home.

And we're already seeing this. @ColombiaStaking is a live MultiversX validator operating out of South America: ☀️ Solar-powered 🛰 Starlink internet 🖥 Self-owned local hardware setup

If we want global-scale trust, we need peers that run in cities, villages, and mountaintops; not just data centers. Read our latest blogpost on home staking, antifragility and @ColombiaStaking's sovereign setup:
