According to Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, many people have been drawn in by politicians using crypto to drum up support with little substance behind their positions.

Vitalik Buterin, one of the co-founders of Ethereum, is warning against voters supporting political candidates who claim to favor cryptocurrencies without understanding the technology’s underlying goals.on crypto users to look into candidates’ previously stated views on digital assets as an indication of where their positions might change in the future, assuming they hold them at all.

“If a politician is in favor of your freedom to trade coins, but they have said nothing about the topics above, then the underlying thought process that causes them to support the freedom to trade coins is very different from mine ,” said Buterin. “This in turn implies a high risk that they will likely have different conclusions from you on issues that you will care about in the future.”
