Ethereum creator Vitalik Buterin has once again slammed the Bitcoin community’s enthusiasm for El Salvador and its president, Nayib Bukele, claiming that many Bitcoin supporters have overlooked the fact that Bukele’s government is “not very democratic.” “This is one of my criticisms of the Bitcoin community: they just automatically love everyone rich and powerful who supports Bitcoin,” Buterin told The Straits Times in a video interview. “A lot of Bitcoin people ignored the fact that Bukele’s government is not a very democratic government that actually has a lot of problems, and they are not that good at respecting other people’s freedoms,” the Ethereum co-founder said.
