Recent market warnings issued by US banks have sparked considerable discussion—if political forces pressure independent financial institutions, the global markets could face severe shocks. Behind this warning lies a deeper issue worth contemplating.

What exactly are the fatal weaknesses of the traditional financial system? In simple terms, it’s over-reliance on "human judgment" and "institutional fairness." No matter how perfect the rules are, ultimately it still depends on the integrity of those in power. Once this trust chain is broken, the entire order built on customary conventions can collapse in an instant.

Looking at the experience in the crypto space, the logic is actually the same—we have endured tragedies like exchange thefts and oracle data tampering, each time caused by a problem with a centralized node. These lessons all point to the same conclusion: the true way to financial security is not to find more "trustworthy" institutions or individuals, but to build a system based on code execution and consensus maintenance—making single-point control physically impossible.

When policy uncertainty increases, this approach becomes especially important. Decentralization is not some profound theory; fundamentally, it’s about using technology to eliminate dependence on a single authority. This may very well be the core logic of future financial defense systems.
