Technology is not inherently evil. If Vitalik wasn't doing what he's doing there'd be one less ethical person in that space and I think that's dangerous and a little bit sad. Eventually someone would create this tech so I'd rather that someone be somewhat ethical.

There are some very valuable positives in other contexts. He thinks those outweigh those risks. He has, at least, thought about it. That’s significant to me.

I think so too, but I think Vitalik is also mindful he’s not American.

Crypto makes it really easy. I've been calling it BribeCoin.

One word; plunder.

Also it's all criminal bullshit, and should be fully illegal. So there's that.

ya gotta work pretty hard to overcome history knowing you as "Guy who helped ruin the world because he was big mad his WoW main got nerfed"

We need more simple, clear, matter-of-fact explainers like this. Thank you for sharing it

He’s a thoughtful person. I don’t agree with all he does (as with anyone), but he’s a man of principle and engages honestly and ethically, and that’s all I can really ask.

Vitalik is pretty much the antithesis of what people mean by crypto/tech bro, despite being someone so influential in crypto/tech
