Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/VitalikButerin/status/1812114231489110491" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">joked</a> about getting "canceled" on social media after speaking out about the importance of cleaning up indoor air.
"Me, early 2024: hmm I haven't been canceled for a while, maybe I should say something spicy and do another round… Me, Jul 2024: canceled for... trying not to get airborne diseases," Buterin added.
On Saturday, the Canadian programmer attached a photo of himself wearing a face mask on a plane next to an air quality monitor that shows elevated levels of CO2.

"The delta between the minds behind crypto and the minds of crypto consumers is pretty awesome to behold," one social media user noted.
Buterin is no stranger to controversial takes. In 2022, he attracted some backlash after arguing that synthetic wombs could potentially&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/VitalikButerin/status/1483491180906045440?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1483533768644337664%7Ctwgr%5Ee7e090b7edf9bf0fcfe2420fe422be7756822c91%7Ctwcon%5Es2_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.indiatimes.com%2Ftechnology%2Fnews%2Fethereum-founder-synthetic-wombs-559920.html" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">reduce</a> gender inequality.
