In an ideal world I agree with you completely (that is exactly what I want) but I think we need to be realistic still. Right now in the world that we live, centralization is seen as trustworthy. The more money some group has, the more powerful they appear to be and the more their opinion as valued. I think that if huge centralized sources are shilling coins, a nascent market like cryptocurrency will be incredibly altered by their voice. Take Elon and Doge or CZ and BNB. Right now, seeing the big time 'blue chip' exchanges pick up a token does make a difference; it isn't everything but it is more important than we are giving it credit for I think
