Many people understand distribution as just an operational action, but this actually underestimates its role. From the perspective of the entire ecosystem, distribution capability is fundamental—it determines whether content can be reliably delivered to users, whether experiences can be reused, and whether the community can expand across different circles. These factors directly impact whether ecosystem growth can be sustained.
Relying solely on centralized channels for dissemination is actually very risky. Once the rules change, traffic can fluctuate significantly. In contrast, a distributed network incorporates accessibility into its structure, making dissemination more robust and offering more compounding opportunities.
The long-term value of protocols like BitTorrent lies here: transforming reachability from single-point control into collective contribution by network participants. The more people involved, the more stable the distribution becomes, and the harder it is to be interrupted. For ecosystems like TRON, this means content, tools, and community activities can persist longer, be more easily discovered, and short-term popularity can more naturally convert into long-term user retention and scale growth.

That's right, the centralized channels are outdated. A single policy change can wipe out your entire investment. Distributed is the way to go.

Hmm... You're right, the centralized approach is indeed too fragile; one update and it's game over.

ngl the whole "distribution as infrastructure" angle is interesting but let's be real — most protocols still bottleneck at adoption anyway. centralized channels are risky sure, but distributed systems just trade one set of vulnerabilities for another. peer participation sounds elegant on paper until you actually audit the incentive structures

Oh no, someone finally clarified this issue. Distribution has really been seriously underestimated.
Exactly right, centralized systems will eventually fail, and TRON's approach is indeed the right way to go.
