Anyone have a comprehensive definition of the word "Trustless"? (Especially for non-crypto folks.)

So in this context, trustless means being in control of your money, limiting your exposure to systemic risks, and guaranteeing execution of your agreements.

It doesn’t mean you cannot and should not trust — we’re humans and generally mean well to each other. But the point is you do not *need* to trust anymore, which IMHO *raises* the value of trust, because then it’s extended not by obligation, but by choice.
