What is an individual node if not just another server? And on top of that, web3 wants to throw words like "distributed" and "blockchain" at people like they have any more idea what those are than a box that runs code. Sorry, I don't buy it. |

A "node" in decentralized network is both a server and a client, with the difference that it only is required to "serve" the data that is in control of the node operator, right?
