decentralizer
Authority distribution advocate
A decentralizer is a person or thing that distributes power, authority, or functions away from a central point.
In organizational contexts, a decentralizer pushes decision-making to local levels rather than concentrating it at headquarters.
In technology, particularly cryptocurrency and blockchain discussions, decentralizers advocate for or build systems without central control: Bitcoin was designed as a decentralizer of financial power.
