Decentralized just means that you can roll your own if you want to.

IIRC coinbase is just selling a chainalysis tool. ICE is stupid, they aren't going to be able to convert a blockchain into a graph of transactions that lets them track payments from one wallet to another on their own - they are going to buy a tool off the shelf to help them do that.




It would probably be more stupid if they tried to build their own.


yeah just from a bottom line perspective this seems valid, think the article says it was $29,000 for the software? doesn't seem too high
