[Vitalik: 'Crypto Twitter' Can Continue as an Industry Term]
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin posted on the X platform, stating that he will accept the rebranding of the Twitter platform and will refer to Twitter as 'X' in the future. He also suggested that 'Tweet' could become a generalized term to refer to messages on all social platforms centered around short text content and offering a similar user experience to X, akin to how 'Kleenex' has evolved into a generic term for tissues.
Vitalik provided examples, saying this usage could apply to short text content on platforms like Farcaster, Lens, and Truth Social, and noted that historical posts can still be referred to as 'Tweets.' Additionally, he believes that 'Crypto Twitter' can remain as a fixed term, joking that it could also be called 'CryptoX.'
He further added that the above content has been simultaneously published via Firefly to multiple platforms, including X, Farcaster, and Lens.
