Binaries fractures – individuals and institutions presented with a choice between different polarities instead of being able to align along a median – is a theme from the OODA Almanac 2023.  Decentralized versus centralized systems is the high-level, umbrella “binary fracture” you can put over all the geopolitical and technological arenas we explore here at OODA Loop. Another binary fracture has crystallized in the last few weeks, which is – at its core – also rooted in the centralization versus decentralization binary fracture induced by the ongoing digital revolution – and that is The traditional global, centralized banking financial system with the U.S. dollar as the dominant fiat currency versus an innovative, secure, global, digital self-sovereign, blockchain-based, decentralized financial system with “fiat currency multipolarity.”
