Ethereum's Vitalik Buterin Proposes Argentina for 2024 Devconnect
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has proposed Argentina as the host for Devconnect, a major global event for Ethereum developers. Buterin praised the country's crypto community and expressed optimism about its broader crypto ecosystem, despite the previous LIBRA debacle. Meanwhile, leaked texts from Hayden Davis have supported Buterin's criticisms of political meme coins and bribery in the crypto industry.
Buterin believes crypto offers a genuine pathway to economic freedom for many users, beyond speculative investment. He condemned political meme coins like TRUMP, describing them as 'vehicles for unlimited political bribery'. His concerns were echoed by leaked texts from Hayden Davis, which hinted at similar bribery practices in the crypto industry.
Buterin's admiration for Argentina's crypto community led him to propose the country as the host for Devconnect in 2024. Argentine President Javier Milei enthusiastically supported the idea. Buenos Aires was among the cities that applied to host the event, demonstrating the country's commitment to the crypto sector.
Vitalik Buterin's proposal to host Devconnect in Argentina reflects the country's growing influence in the global crypto ecosystem. Despite past challenges, Argentina's crypto community continues to thrive, attracting the attention of key figures in the industry. The event, scheduled for 2024, is expected to further boost the country's profile in the crypto world.
