Decentralized banking addresses blockchain scaling, because the linear structure of a blockchain means that doubling the number of participants and transactions halves its speed.

Source quote, verbatim
Decentralized banking helps solve a major problem with blockchains called scaling. If you double the number of participants and transactions, the linear nature of the blockchain makes it slow down by half.
