Talking Politics with Vitalik Buterin (Part 2)


I interviewed Vitalik Buterin about his thoughts on the political aspects of crypto. It was a candid discussion about his book “Proof of Stake“, the evolution of Ethereum, and the dangers of the far right.

Although our discussion happened just before the current scandal with FTX, there were many relevant threads. History has shown that similar types of events can create openings for radicalization and it’s important that we make the appropriate moves to tamp down the fascistic tendencies in this space. 

This is the second half of the full 2.5 hour long discussion we had. Although you don’t have to, I’d recommend listening to the first half of the interview which you should be able to find it on whichever platform you’re listening to this episode.
