"Vitalik Buterin Needs to Resume Engagements on X For Ethereum’s Sake" – ????

Elon Musk, the owner of X, has asked why Ethereum Co-Founder Vitalik Buterin left the social media network. Musk’s question was in response to a user who suggested Buterin needs to get back on the platform with engagements promoting Ethereum.
Buterin’s account on the social media platform remains active as of the time of writing, with over 5.2 million followers. However, data highlighted that Ethereum’s co-founder posts more frequently on the decentralized social network Farcaster.

Considering Buterin’s X account status, the original post from the user suggested the Ethereum co-founder needs to become more active on X. He believes abandoning X for Farcaster would not benefit Buterin and Ethereum. According to the user, “Farcaster isn’t going to win the culture war.”

The X tweet said: “If he (Buterin) wants Ethereum to shine, he should engage more on this platform (X), not sequester himself with his chosen peers on an island.” The crypto user believes Buterin will have far more impact if he engages with the more populated X community.

In January, Buterin acknowledged he chose Farcaster over X due to the habit of most X users.  Tyler John, a technology policy grantmaker at Longview had observed how followers regularly rain down on the Ethereum founder’s posts. 

According to John, a deluge of sycophants, crypto bots, and followers on X rain down on Buterin’s posts with tickers, memes, and expressions of praise. Such behavior relegates the actual posts to the background. Hence, the Ethereum founder adopted appending every reply with “srry 4 ratio-ing.” 
Buterin responded to John’s post, acknowledging the situation as part of the reasons he turned to Farcaster for most of his posts.

Interesting thoughts from the user, but we hope that Elon Musk has nothing to do with this and does not want to use it to his advantage!
