Ethereum’s Vitalik Buterin surprised his followers with an AMA session on Twitter. He said that only the people whom he is following could ask him whatever they want to.
Check out his post below.
Doing a random twitter experiment just on this day. Only the 268 people I follow can reply to this tweet. Feel free to ask things and I'll talk about anything crypto or non-crypto related.

Check out one of the questions that were pretty interesting for Buterin.
One big thing I want to keep pushing for is for ethereum to avoid having too much of a US center of gravity. Globalism is one of crypto's greatest strengths and we should be celebrating and building on it much more.
(eg. see this NFT art from Ethiopia: https://t.co/6ndYNE0Xut )

He also addressed unregulated capitalism, following a question from another one of his followers.
Check out the discussion below:
Environmental destruction -> PoS
Social injustice -> (i) the various public goods projects on ethereum, which hopefully can expand to doing useful things beyond ethereum itself once they grow bigger, (ii) the NFT ecosystem more actively supporting projects in LatAm, Africa, etc— vitalik.eth (@VitalikButerin) September 2, 2021
You should definitely hop on Twitter to see the complete thread.
Ethereum in the crypto market
Ethereum has been doing great lately, and the coin is getting close to its ATH. Analysts are saying that the digital asset is racing towards $4k once again.
Ethereum is one of the big gainers today, and the coin is trading in the green.
At the moment of writing this article, ETH is priced above $3,800. ETH is currently trading at $3,802, while BTC is trading just below $50k.
There are all kinds of optimistic predictions about the price of ETH these days, and some of them might seem too far-fetched, but here we go.
The online publication AMBCrypto notes that between mid-November and mid-January, ETH’s value managed to appreciate by over 250%, from $400 to over $1400.
“A hike of a similar magnitude at this stage would see ETH trading at around $8750.”
