According to VitalikButerin, the Ethereum co-founder humorously speculates about potentially getting 'cancelled' in early 2024 for discussing controversial topics like genetic engineering, geopolitics, or supporting illegal immigrants. By July 2024, he jokes about being cancelled for merely trying to avoid airborne diseases. Traders should note the potential volatility in Ethereum's market sentiment due to Buterin's high-profile social media presence and his engagement in controversial discussions.
