Vitalik Buterin Supports Ukraine

Ethereum founder Buterin attended the Kyiv Tech Summit event to show his support for Russia-occupied Ukraine. Buterin’s trip to Ukraine was hidden due to security concerns.

Buterin’s visit to Kyiv came at a time when the war loomed close to Europe’s largest nuclear power plant.

Vitalik Buterin used the following statements at the event:

“I have been following Ukraine closely since the war started. I wanted you to know that many people in the blockchain, Ethereum and cryptocurrency worlds truly care about and support you.”

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken was also in Kiev during Buterin’s visit. Blinken, however, did not attend the event.

The country’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Digital Transformation Mykhailo Federov and his deputy Alex Bornyakov also attended the event.

The event focused on crypto projects submitted to support Ukraine’s freedom struggle.

Buterin, who also provided financial aid to Ukraine, said that he wanted to see the technologies in Ukraine, what they care about and what they have developed.

CJ Hetherington, co-founder of the event, said:

“It was incredible that Vitalik and key figures from the Ministry of Digital Transformation joined us in the field. Kyiv Tech Summit is not just an ordinary technology event, it is the embodiment of Ukraine’s protest”

Other speakers at the event included Kiril Khomiakov, managing director of Binance Ukraine, Illia Polosukhin, co-founder of NEAR Protocol, and Pavlo Kartashov, director of the Ukraine Venture Fund.
