Now when you say crypto is "decentralized" what does that actually mean?

There is a large amount of independent nodes processing transactions. And it is impossible, or at least pretty infeasible, for a single entity to block transactions.

But the way the nodes process the transactions. Do they just do whatever they want or do they operate within some sort of set standard- and if so how is this standard determined?

You're not exactly inspiring investor confidence here.

How many doors do you have to kick down to shut down or compromise the coin.
If your coin has a CEO controlling it, or all the nodes are run in data centers that can just be told to take them offline (e.g. Parler), a few insiders with massive premines etc...

So basically only BTC is decentralized, and maybe XMR and LTC, kek.

And now you see the purpose of the Jews trying to replace Proof Of Work with Proof Of Stake.

Anything with a company running it is centralized by the company. I would not even consider these cryptocurrencies.
Anything proof of stake is centralized on the protocol level. These are cryptocurrencies which can be easily attacked by the state if necessary (exchanges already control a fuck ton of validators for ETH. All the proof I will ever need that PoS is cucked).
Anything proof of work without ASIC resistance is physically centralized. You just confiscate the ASIC warehouses.
