On June 30, 2025, Vitalik Buterin, founder of Ethereum, warned that the unique digital ID system threatens privacy and anonymity (CoinGecko, price $ETH ~$2,440). He proposed “pluralistic identity”, a flexible, decentralized model that allows users to own multiple digital identities to protect anonymity and ensure fair access. This solution enhances security in the blockchain ecosystem, promotes DeFi and decentralized applications, and strengthens user autonomy in the digital era.
