Vitalik Buterin on Ethereum's Relationship with Wall Street: They are Ethereum users, we are professional users.
On November 20, Bankless co-founder @RyanSAdams showcased an interview clip with Vitalik on X. In the interview, the host asked, "What do you think about the relationship between Ethereum and Wall Street?"

Yesterday, Vitalik warned in a speech that if institutional ETH holdings continue to grow, Ethereum will face two major threats (developer loss and forced changes to the technical roadmap).
