Ethereum’s Slump Fuels Memes About Vitalik Buterin’s Love Life

As Ethereum faces recent challenges, the crypto community has found a new target for their frustrations.
On August 1, a viral image featuring Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin and a woman in matching hats sparked a flurry of online speculation, claiming she was his girlfriend and would boost Ethereum’s value to $10,000. This has yet to happen.

The trend of linking Buterin with female figures to boost Ethereum’s image is not new. Previous attempts included photos and memes suggesting romantic links, but these have not resulted in significant market changes.
Today, the same account that shared the initial post released another image of Buterin with a different woman, predicting this new association could drive Ethereum’s value to $50,000.

These memes reflect a broader belief in the crypto community that financial success should come with high-profile relationships, even though the women featured may not have any actual connection with Buterin.
The notion that financial success in crypto should translate into glamorous personal lives is a recurring theme. Early crypto influencers suggested that significant investments would not only yield wealth but also attract desirable partners, a belief still prevalent in crypto circles.
