The application of blockchain technology in finance is invaluable, but it does have inherent drawbacks known as the Blockchain Trilemma. It establishes a balance between security, decentralization, and scalability of the network. Blockchain security prioritizes the protection of the network from bad actors and attacks, while decentralization deals with how the network capabilities are divided across multiple computers globally. Decentralization ensures that the service cannot be destroyed because there is no head. A blockchain network is more like a hydra.
