The crypto project itself is registered under MKT World LLC — a company Melania has used since 2021.

🪙 Vitalik Buterin has proposed simplifying Ethereum’s architecture by reducing complexity and the amount of critical code. He believes the protocol has become too bloated, slowing down development. His suggestions include reworking the beacon chain and replacing the EVM with a simpler virtual machine like RISC-V, while maintaining compatibility.
Meanwhile, Max Keiser, a crypto advisor to the President of El Salvador, believes Ethereum has long lost its value and has no future. In his view, the project was flawed from the start and ended up wasting time and resources.
