No, that's a different ideology.
Blockchain goes beyond decentralization and pretends to be "trustless" .
That's libertarian fanatism : noone can be trusted, no regulation is useful, full freddom, code is law, etc, .... Pure individualism = the rejection of any social construction other than contractual = pure market.
Fediverse on the other hand more like like anarchy : flattening / distributing the power, but still with trust on actors of good will ...

Exactly 14 years ago , Satoshi Nakamoto designed the most pathetic / inefficient system ever invented by humankind : the blockchain.
Today, it weights 60 000 tons, wastes constantly 10 gigawatts (more than Belgium or Chile) to process less than 7 transactions per second :
Less than a 33 bps modem from 1990.
This could be a joke if it didn't have such gigantic environmental impact, wasn't enabling billion dollars ransomware industry and was not crushing thousands of lives in the process.
