Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin fires shots at tech billionaire Elon Musk over X's alleged role in amplifying hate speech. The crypto visionary's critique lands as Musk's social media empire faces mounting scrutiny.

Buterin's broadside highlights growing tensions between Web3 ideals and centralized platform governance. The Ethereum founder—known for advocating decentralized solutions—clearly sees Musk's X as failing its moderation responsibilities.

Meanwhile, crypto Twitter erupts with memes speculating whether Dogecoin's biggest cheerleader will respond. After all, nothing boosts engagement like a good old-fashioned billionaire feud—except maybe another Doge pump orchestrated by the 'Technoking' himself.

Vitalik Criticizes Elon Musk

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin accused Elon Musk of turning X, once a free speech platform, into a tool that spreads coordinated hate, especially in Europe after a $140M EU fine for not controlling misinformation. He warned that algorithm changes promoting outrage over kindness could harm Core social values in the coming years. Meanwhile, Farcaster, a decentralized network Vitalik supported, is shifting to a wallet-first model, focusing more on on-chain trading than social interactions.

The risk is especially high in leveraged trading since leverage magnifies profits and amplifies risks at the same time. Please make sure you have a thorough understanding of the industry, the leveraged trading models, and the rules of trading before opening a position. Additionally, we strongly recommend that you identify your risk tolerance and only accept the risks you are willing to take. All trading involves risks, so you must be cautious when entering the market.
