Trust math, not middlemen.

Protocols should minimize reliance on humans.
That means:

• Immutable contracts
  
• Minimal oracles
  
• Decentralized governance
  

Admin keys and single multisigs are shortcuts. DeFi Punk means cryptography replaces trust.

Examples:

• ✅ MakerDAO → decentralized governance.
  
  
• ❌ Admin-key-controlled contracts → one team can shut it down.
  
  

Scoring:

• 0 = centralized
  
  
• 1 = mixed
  
  

2 = trustless
