Re-explain

Decentralization in Ethereum means that no single entity controls the network. Instead, it's maintained by thousands of nodes worldwide.

Three types of decentralization:

  • Architectural: No single point of failure (distributed nodes)
  • Political: No single person/organization controls the system
  • Logical: Shared state and protocols across all participants

Benefits include censorship resistance, reduced single points of failure, and increased security through distributed consensus.
