Answer lies here:
"There are lot of rich people ready to shell out good money for that"
He is not looking for decentralization but looking for rich people who can "shell out" money in his so called decentralized projects.
If I were to give him the benefit of the doubt, I would say he is living in some fairly tale land where some rich guys shelling out some money will solve all the problems and it will solve all the problems. Pavel Durov did this with Telegram. But that was an ultra rare case and he himself benefited a lot from creation of Telegram because he had means of communication that couldn't be monitored by the Russian government. In a way he was a Snowden Lite with a 9 figure net worth.
