$ZIPPY – Vitalik Buterin's Dog

Sometimes the most important things only become clear years later — when you stop looking forward and start looking back at the road already traveled. These photos aren’t about specific dates or specific places. They are fragments of a time when Ethereum was not yet what the world knows today. There were no big words, no “industry,” no certainty that anything would work out. There was only an idea — and people who believed in it. We started from zero. We lived in ordinary apartments, often together, where work and everyday life blended into one. Work desks stood where we ate. Laptops lived on kitchen tables, on couches, on our laps. Sometimes the living room became an office, sometimes just a room with power outlets and internet. We didn’t divide time into “work” and “life” — it was all the same thing.
