Vitalik Responded

Today, January 22, 1990, the hearing in the case of Robert Tappan Morris concluded. This guy created the legendary computer virus – the worm.

And Vitalik Buterin has responded. Top ETH coders are complaining about the highly toxic environment. He says that when you argue, you’re making it harder for him to work and protect them from toxicity.

It all started with the public departure of eric.eth, who accused the Ethereum Foundation of being too left-leaning and slowing down development. So Vitalik responded by saying, "You're wrong, I'm doing everything right."

While this isn't exactly a split, their positions are completely opposite. Interestingly, Vitalik bought Milady and started shilling it. According to their lore, Milady represents the right-wing, while Vitalik publicly stands by left-wing ideals, defending coders and their "safe space." It’s turning into quite a political battle.

These are the modern genius programmers—unable to work due to toxic comments on the internet.
