Vitalik Buterin, the Ethereum wizard, has been secretly sprinkling his crypto fairy dust on encrypted messaging apps, donating 256 ETH to SimpleX Chat and Session. 🧙♂️💸 What’s next, a privacy-powered Hogwarts? 🏰
Onchain analytics firm Arkham raised an eyebrow, shouting, “VITALIK JUST SENT $2.9M $ETH TO RAILGUN. Vitalik holds over $700 MILLION of ETH, and just sent $2.9M into Railgun. What is he cooking? 🤔”

Buterin, the privacy guru, is betting big on SimpleX and Session, saying they’re the future of secret chats. “Encrypted messaging, like @signalapp, is critical for preserving our digital privacy,” he wrote. “Two important next steps: permissionless account creation and metadata privacy.” 📱🔐
He donated 128 ETH to each, urging, “But also, actually download and use them!” 🚀 He’s not just a crypto philanthropist-he’s a crypto cheerleader. 🎉
The transactions? All done via Railgun, a privacy wizard that hides every detail. 🧙♂️✨
Buterin’s been a privacy pro for years, but this time, he’s not just donating-he’s advocating. “Strong metadata privacy requires decentralization, decentralization is hard,” he admits. “But I’m here for it. 💪”
SimpleX and Session? They’re like the rebels of the messaging world, ditching phone numbers for QR codes. 📲🔍 Buterin’s not claiming they’re perfect-just “a way to go to get to truly optimal user experience and security.” 🧠
At press time, Ethereum (ETH) traded at $3,007. Because why not? 💸
