According to TechFlow, on July 18, Ethereum founder Vitalik published an article titled "Against Choosing Your Political Allies Based on Who "Pro-Cryptocurrency"". In the article, he stated that although cryptocurrency is becoming increasingly important in modern politics, excessive focus on this may go against the values of the initial entry into the crypto field. He emphasized that cryptocurrency is not just currency and blockchain, but has broader concepts of technological freedom and personal freedom. Freedom is not limited to payment, but also freedom of communication, digital identity, and thought. Politicians who support cryptocurrency do not necessarily have the same stance on other freedoms and technological issues.
