      Totally True.
      Politicians always manipulate mass-minds. So we need to be critical to every their word and pay attention just to actions.

            To make it simpler. Vote who can make the world a better place. Vote who values life and humanity.

                Reading through Vitalik's post made me really think about how nuanced our political choices should be. It’s not just about being pro-crypto or anti-crypto; there's so much more at stake. Yeah, blockchain tech is cool and all, but our future leaders should have a wider vision that includes sustainability and social equity too. What’s your take on balancing tech advancements with other important policies?

                          Interesting article on politics and cryptocurrencies! It's essential not to get carried away just because a politician is enthusiastic about cryptocurrencies. According to Vitalik Buterin, the freedom of payment is important, but it is not the only freedom we should consider. There are other equally fundamental technological freedoms, such as the freedom and privacy of communication, privacy-friendly digital identity, freedom of thought, and high-quality access to information. Supporting a politician solely for their stance on cryptocurrencies can be dangerous, as it may encourage them to oversimplify their platforms to attract crypto enthusiasts' votes, neglecting broader and essential societal issues. We should support candidates who genuinely understand and promote a positive and comprehensive vision for the future
