Ethereum Founder Vitalik Buterin Was Right, Kaspa Proves It!

Hinzugefügt: 2026-05-30

[00:00:00]What's up, crypto crew? Welcome back to the channel. Today, we're checking out this clip from Ethereum co-founder Vitalic Buterine back in July 2024 because it's aging incredibly well.

[00:00:12]>> Da Vinci, did you just tweet about Cass or Caspa? Uh, yeah, I did.

[00:00:19]>> Now, before we continue, Crypto Crew, always remember to prove all things, hold fast that which is good. Whatever crypto you hold, Bitcoin, Casp, or any other crypto asset, make sure you protect them. The best option for you, in our opinion, is the Tangent wallet.

[00:00:35]As of now, you can get 20% off your Tangent wallet, plus up to 10 USD in Bitcoin, and you can get an additional 50% on your second Tangent Wallet set.

[00:00:47]Click the link in the description box below. Select the option second set 50% off. Use codes extra26 and crypto crew.

[00:00:57]This runs until the end of May 2026.

[00:01:00]Thank you for your consideration and support in advance and may the Lord Jesus Christ bless you all. And for these use cases, you need some kind of compromise between centralization and decentralization, right? like the you don't need like full on um you know like cipher bug grade censorship resistance but at the same time you know you do gain benefits from interoperability you gain benefits from verifiability you know you gain benefits from people being able to check Merkel branches and so on and so forth right and since then I think the original vision of like consortium blockchains right had this idea that like you have like five banks or like five major companies come together and bring their own create their own chain has been mostly a failure and I think the reason why it's been mostly a failure is basically because it ends up inheriting most of the disadvantages of centralization and most of the disadvantages of decentralization at the same time right basically because what you have is you have a system where the first five banks okay fine you know they join and they all feel like yay you know we're building a system together we can be part of it Right. But then once baker number six and then bank number seven and bank number 29 come in, they're joining a system where there's like already an established power structure, established participants, like basically yet to them it still feels like they're just joining some kind of centralized thing that's controlled by a cartel.

[00:02:26]Like you don't actually gain a lot of the benefits of like true openness that people are looking for, right?

[00:02:32]>> So Vitalic called out the original vision of consortium blockchains. a few big players like banks building their own closed chains. He said they mostly failed because they combined the worst of both worlds. The cartel dynamics and power struggles of centralization plus the complexity, privacy issues and overhead of decentralization all without delivering real public openness or neutrality.

[00:03:00]>> You don't have Ether Scan. You don't have a connection to an open public network. you don't have these things. At the same time, if you build on one of those systems, then like you have to figure out how to do programming in distributed systems. You lose privacy.

[00:03:16]Uh, and like you might think you still have some, but the reality is like, okay, well, you're putting your data on a network for the only people that get to see it are you and all your closest competitors, right? And so, from a privacy perspective, it actually doesn't make much sense. And so on and so forth.

[00:03:32]The compromise between centralization and decentralization that actually makes a lot more sense is to basically say you have an application. Today that application is a server, you can keep your server, but instead we're going to add scaffolding on top to give users extra security guarantees.

[00:03:54]>> Fast forward to today, late May 2026. At the making of this recording, Tokata is literally weeks away. Caspa is proving Vitalik's point not by arguing with it but by fulfilling the better path. Think about it crypto crew. After Tokata drops in that June 5 to 20 window, Casper levels up with real native programmability, Covenants Plus+, Silver Script, ZK verification up codes, the whole package all while keeping that insane blog deck speed and proof of work security that has made Caspa so special.

[00:04:29]The future of digital currency is here or to make crypto great again. Believe me, this coin is going to be very, very successful. Just tremendous.

[00:04:37]>> Now, before we continue, Crypto Crew, I want to give a shout out to today's sponsor. I mean, it's great to have decentralized crypto investments such as Casper and Bitcoin, but if you're not protecting your gains, Crypto Crew, you're leaving yourself exposed. So for our non US viewers, LLC Vault lets you set up a private US LLC and earn crypto income with potentially zero tax. Store offshore tax-free. It's that simple. For US citizens, formation vaults help you build an offshore structure. Panama, Cook Islands, wherever to create a legal fortress around your wealth so the government cannot freeze it. This isn't about dodging taxes, Crypto Crew. It's about legally keeping more of what you earn. And because Hector from Acequisition is a friend of the channel, you get 10% off these professional setups. Don't be a sitting duck, Crypto Crew. Protect your gains today. Link in the description box below. You put roots on chain. You put proofs on chain.

[00:05:35]Ideally, I'm validity proofs, but you can also do fraud proofs if you have some kind of robust data availability.

[00:05:43]So you put proofs onchain, you put Merkel roots onchain and you give your users assurance that uh whatever is happening on the inside of your system actually is following the rules. This is exactly the hybrid version buterine was pointing toward. You don't have to rip out your existing systems. You keep your fast centralized servers for the heavy lifting, but now you can anchor everything with compact Merkel roots and verifiable proof straight onto Caspa's public neutral settlement layer.

[00:06:15]Lightning fast confirmations, verifiable, trust minimize, open to everyone. No gatekeepers, no cartels deciding who gets to play. And this is huge for AI agents. These autonomous systems are going to be transacting, coordinating, and executing at machine speed. They need subsecond settlements, dirt cheap fees, rockolid security, and real verifiability. Casper Plus Tokata is built for exactly that future. We're turning a pure highfrequency money rail into a full programmable monetary base layer without the usual compromises. No bloating the base layer, no sacrificing performance, just pure elegant scaling.

[00:07:01]So consensus um runs on these two big algorithms. One of them is this LMD ghost fork choice rule which is an adaptation of um this ghost algorithm that was invented by Yonatan Solinsky in 2013 to a proof ofstake context. And the main goal of LMD ghost is to be able to handle network latency, be able to handle fast messages, and be able to kind of help rapidly confirm block. So you have high scale, you have high performance, and you optimize for a minimal delta for existing centralized infrastructure deployments, right?

[00:07:36]Because you keep your existing infrastructure the way as it is, and you just add a sidecar that makes the roots and the proof. Metallic Buterine saw the problems clearly back in the summer of 2024. Today, Casper is turning that critique into momentum. This isn't just another upgrade. This is the moment a truly decentralized, high throughput proofof work network becomes ready for the next era. The era of AI agents living and trading onchain. The timing is poetic. Crypto crew, the rhythm is changing. The Tokata hardfork is coming and Caspa is stepping up as one of the strongest public foundations the decentralized future can build on. The original vision of like consortium blockchains, right? Had this idea that like you have like five banks or like five major companies come together and bring their own create their own chain has been mostly a failure. And I think the reason why it's been most way a failure is basically because it ends up inheriting most of the disadvantages of centralization and most of the disadvantages of decentralization at the same time. The compromise between centralization and decentralization that actually makes a lot more sense is to basically say you have an application today that application is a server. You can keep your server and but instead we're going to add scaffolding on top to give users extra security guarantees. So what do you make of Vitalic Buterine's comments?
