Ethereum To Emerge As Winner?

A user asked Buterin, how he feels about the US policy approach to crypto amid recent enforcements. Ethereum founder stated that he feels bad that major projects like Solana are getting hit in this way. He asserted that these blockchains don’t deserve this.

He mentioned that if Ethereum ends up winning when all other blockchains are getting kicked off from crypto exchanges, would not present an honorable way to win. However, he suggests that this isn’t even a victory in the long term.

As per Ethereum founder, its real competition is not with other chains in the crypto industry as it is rapidly expanding in the centralized world. Meanwhile, Buterin wished that all the blockchain projects get a fair outcome amid the increasing uncertainty. Read More Ethereum News Here…
