Infrastructure ownership pertains to the control and possession of foundational systems supporting a network or service. In the context of blockchain, this can relate to who controls nodes, mining equipment, or decentralized physical infrastructure. Decentralized infrastructure ownership aims to distribute control among many participants, thereby enhancing network resilience and censorship resistance. This contrasts with centralized models where a single entity holds significant power.
