Decentralized systems are computer systems in which components are distributed across multiple computers, or nodes, rather than being concentrated in a single central location. This distribution of components makes decentralized systems more secure and reliable than centralized systems, as there is no single point of failure. Decentralized systems are also more scalable than centralized systems, as they can be easily expanded to include more nodes as needed.
