Suggestion to substitute "trustless" with "trust-minimized" - reason: in crypto slang "trustless" means "no need for trust", but in formal English (according to Merriam Webster https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/trustless ) the meaning is defined as "distrustful" or "not deserving of trust", hence quite the opposite of what is actually meant. In order to avoid confusion for people not familiar with crypto slang we should use the term "trust-minimized" which is more precise. | Suggestion to substitute "trustless" with "trust-minimized" - reason: in crypto slang "trustless" means "no need for trust", but in formal English (according to Merriam Webster https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/trustless ) the meaning is defined as "distrustful" or "not deserving of trust", hence quite the opposite of what is actually meant.
