Abstract generation in progress

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has issued a stern warning about the potential danger of political tokens such as TRUMP and MELANIA, describing them as 'unbounded political bribery tools'. Buterin's statement, shared on social media platform X today, comes in the context of increasing interest in cryptocurrencies by many high-level politicians, including US President Donald Trump. Buterin's concern is part of a broader discussion about the evolving cryptocurrency landscape, in which he cites the risks of creating unregulated tokens and the conflict between short-term excitement and long-term value in the industry. "We have entered a new order since last year," Buterin wrote, adding: "The most powerful people in the world are now embracing the idea that anyone can create a token for anything, at any scale. So now is the time to talk about the difference between short-term joy and long-term fulfillment and to create wealth, which is not wise when introducing it to beginners." Mr. Ví, this phenomenon is similar to "addictive modern mobile games" prioritizing instant gratification, in contrast to more strategic and enduring activities like chess. Buterin expressed particular concern about large-scale political currencies, believing that they pose risks far beyond individual participants in the cryptocurrency ecosystem. Buterin wrote: “Large-scale political currencies go even further: they are not a source of entertainment, and their harm is limited to the mistakes made intentionally by participants.” He added: “They are unlimited political bribery tools, including bribing foreign national governments.” The comment of the Ethereum founder came after Buterin recently launched two famous political tokens named TRUMP and MELANIA, related to President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump.
