Against the backdrop of Youtube blocking, community representatives began to discuss the creation of a decentralized socialnetwork. The idea was supported by CZ, Vitalik Buterin and other prominent figures. Asked by one of the developers about how to implement this idea within the framework of non-scalable blockchains, the creator of Ethereum advised him to try bitcoin sidechains until Ethereum 2.0 is ready.
</p>Buterin used an unflattering word in relation tosidechains, as recently the confrontation with bitcoin maximalists has intensified. The latter did not miss the opportunity to criticize the programmer.
«How can you safely hold ETH when the founder of Ethereum himself would prefer a crap sidechain?», — emphasized Lina Seiche from the BTSE exchange.
Buterin had suggested maximalists criticize Binance DEX for centralization instead of Ethereum. CZ did not like this attack, although he emphasized that he did not care.
In November, Blockstream Dr. Adam Beck compared Buterin to the founder of the collapsed biotech startup Theranos.
