🚨 Vitalik speaks out about the wave of copying in crypto.
🟦 Vitalik Buterin believes that the blockchain industry is wasting opportunities as too many projects simply replicate the familiar formula of creating new EVM chains and then attaching slow bridges or calling themselves L1 without a substantial connection to Ethereum. According to him, this low-level copying is eroding the creativity of the entire ecosystem.
🟦 Vitalik calls for a return to genuine innovation focused on long-term valuable directions such as privacy, specialized infrastructure for each application, or networks with extremely low latency instead of continuing to produce technology copies.
🟦 He also emphasizes an important point that connecting to Ethereum is not just a slogan but must accurately reflect the true nature of the technology behind it. Or the project must genuinely rely on Ethereum for payment and data verification to achieve interoperability or transparency of algorithms through verifiable on-chain proofs.
🟦 The core message is very clear: the value of Ethereum only makes sense when it is built correctly and innovation must start from the foundation, not from promotional words.
