Vitalik Buterin Disappointed With Embrace of Blockchain Casinos

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin expressed disappointment that some in the Ethereum community favor blockchain-based casinos. He criticized this focus during a question-and-answer session, contrasting it with what he sees as a better path. Buterin implied this was a negative comparison to Solana, which has seen more memecoin activity. He stated that if this trend continues, he would leave the Ethereum ecosystem. However, he also mentioned that in-person conversations with the community reveal shared values, leading him to feel a responsibility to stay.
