Earlier this year, in February ether ETH/USD co-founder Vitalik Buterin discussed an ambitious proposal to create an entirely new ETH country.

What happened: Buterin appeared on a Feb. 8 podcast, The Network State, hosted by Balaji Srinivasan to discuss the concept of creating a new country.

Buterin was asked, “If you could start a new country, how would you do it? And “If it were so ether-based?”

Buterin said it’s important to recognize that not all people start from the same point of agreement. Building a successful ETH world means avoiding the “intersectional activism trap” where a community might form “around one thing” and gradually add other demands.

Buterin also warned against being founded in a new city or country by people ether The community there “shouldn’t feel like you, as an Ethereum person, have to like any particular thing.”

At the same time he also saw a great dynamic within the ether Ecosystem and said that the crypto world, “AI and the Ethereum world are natural places to start something new and they will inevitably be big parts of any newly created city or country.”

Price promotion: At the time of writing, ETH traded at $1,905.82, up 2% in the last 24 hours, according to Benzinga Pro.
