Vitalik: Writing popular science posts on cryptography in the spirit of ensuring that people are empowered in the future. We need tools, and we need them to be understood and used.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik discussed the Dubai Museum of the Future and the Tokyo Museum of the Future in Japan and the technological myths reflected behind them in his personal blog. He believes that "the main type of technology missing from the Dubai Museum of the Future is social technology, especially governance. The only clear description of the governance structure I found in Dubai's imaginary world in 2064 was a casual remark in the description of the main space station on Mars - the operators are: the Global Space Administration and SpaceX. On the other hand, the structure of the Future Museum itself in Japan emphasizes collaborative discussion, and you will see frequent references to language, culture, government and freedom of the press." In addition, he mentioned that both have specific and positive imaginations of a technologically advanced future, not just the 3478th "Black Mirror"-style Hollywood dystopia. Finally, he emphasized: "We do need advanced tools, but we also need them to be understandable and usable to ensure that more people can work together and to ensure that the future empowers people, rather than becoming a series of iPhone interfaces built by a few people that the rest of us can only access in a standardized way."
