Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of Ethereum, expressed disappointment in the crypto industry's "moral reversal," particularly regarding blockchain gambling. He mentioned criticism of Ethereum for not fully supporting blockchain casinos and stated that he would leave the blockchain space if it continued down this path. Despite his frustrations with online discussions, Buterin noted that personal encounters with crypto enthusiasts still embody the community's core values. He encouraged Ethereum supporters to actively participate in creating the world they want to see and suggested that the Ethereum Foundation should support specific project types that align with Ethereum's mission. These statements followed the Ethereum Foundation's announcement of changes to its funding mechanisms, including investing in DeFi platforms. The community had previously criticized the foundation for selling Ethereum to fund its operations instead of exploring alternative approaches like DeFi.
