Ramp Network's Przemek Kowalczyk talks crypto, blockchain, decentralization with Vitalik Buterin
Last week, Ethereum (ETH) founder Vitalik Buterin visited Ramp Network's office within the framework of ETHWarsaw events curicculum. The Ethereum (ETH) legend had a fireside chat with Ramp Network's CEO and cofounder Przemek Kowalczyk.
What started as a casual meetup at the Ramp Network office turned into a wide-ranging and candid conversation between Web3 industry OGs.
Speakers talked about Ethereum’s (ETH) beginnings, remaining a nonprofit and the shifting role of the Ethereum Foundation in ever-evolving economic, technical and other contexts.
Buterin stressed that if Ethereum (ETH) was launched by a for-profit company that had shareholders, this is something that people would just not be willing to accept, and the project would not be able to succeed.
Also, he admitted the challenges of the current stage of the meme coin segment, which might be more dangerous to average participants than it seems to be:

Privacy and censorship resistance issues were also on the agenda for the talk.

Also, Ramp Network shared a key community strategy announcement. Its Warsaw office officially began its transformation into a Web3 hub for local developers, marketers, entrepreneurs and investors.
