Decentralized consensus with large groups introduces serious hurdles: How do millions of users agree, communicate, and influence a shared system? Traditional methods like voting are limited—they can lead to hierarchies that suppress minority opinions, cause loss of nuanced information, or create superficial consensus.
Professor Franconi notes that logical protocols—rooted in mathematical logic—can underpin trust and fair decision-making even at planetary scales. These protocols allow for structured discussions where arguments and counterarguments follow formal logical rules, capable of scaling beyond small groups without drowning in noise.
