Ethereum Founder Vitalik Buterin Makes Statement Targeting TRUMP and MELANIA

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has issued a stern warning about the potential dangers of political tokens like TRUMP and MELANIA, describing them as “unlimited political bribery tools.” Buterin’s statements, shared on social media platform X today, come amid growing interest in cryptocurrencies from high-profile political figures, including US President Donald Trump. Buterin’s concerns were part of a broader discussion about the evolving crypto landscape, where he cited the risks of unregulated creation of tokens and the conflict between short-term excitement and long-term value in the industry. “We have been entering a new order since last year,” Buterin wrote, adding: “The most powerful people in the world now applaud the idea of anyone creating tokens for anything, at any scale. So now is the time to talk about the difference between short-term pleasure and long-term fulfillment and wealth creation, which is not wise to recommend to beginners.” Related News: JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon, A Known Cryptocurrency Hater, Made a Quite Different Statements This Time He likened the phenomenon to “modern hyper-addictive cell phone games” that prioritize instant gratification, contrasting it with more strategic and enduring pursuits such as chess. Buterin expressed particular concern about large-scale political coins, arguing that they pose risks far beyond individual participants in the crypto ecosystem. “Large-scale political coins cross a line further: they are not sources of entertainment whose harm is limited, at most, to mistakes made by willing participants,” Buterin wrote, adding: “They are a tool for unlimited political bribery, including of foreign nation-states.” The Ethereum founder’s comments come on the heels of Buterin’s recent launch of two high-profile political tokens called TRUMP and MELANIA, which are linked to President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump. *This is not investment advice.
