In this episode, Juri Maibaum sits down with Douwe to unpack how Hyve is tackling one of crypto's biggest blind spots: the hidden centralization of data and infrastructure. The conversation dives into how blockchain systems are secretly far more centralized than most people realize, why data layers have become the weakest link in decentralization, and how Hyve is rebuilding the stack from the ground up to make decentralization real - not just at the protocol level, but under the hood.
