Edward Snowden criticized Solana for prioritizing efficiency over decentralization, calling it a "centralized chain" at the Token2049 conference.

He warned that this trade-off makes the network vulnerable to manipulation and misuse, particularly for "meme coins and scams."

His concerns emphasize the need for users to remain vigilant about blockchain governance and the risks posed by centralized control, even in high-performance networks.
