@VitalikButerin is an enormously effective communicator. And he is the most important contributor to and steward of the Ethereum ecosystem. Anyone who thinks that by writing fiction Vitalik isn't choosing the most effective way he can think of to further the growth and adoption of Ethereum is missing the point. Wouldn't it be cool if Vitalik wrote a seminal cypherpunk classic explicating how one or more individuals are able to make their way constructively through a dark cypherpunk dystopia and show the world the benefits of the Ethereum and CROPS technology? Like Cory Doctorow's Little Brother series or A Young Lady's Illustrated Primer. Could be a catalyst for something transformational.(Joseph Lubin)
