Vitalik Just Dropped A 1500 Word Bombshell on Ethereum's Future
1️⃣ He officially crowned $ETH as Ethereum's "Most High-Value Product"
→ Casually revealed nearly 90% of his personal net worth sits in $ETH
→ The other 10% (~$40M) is already locked into open-source biotech and software bets
2️⃣ Ethereum Foundation holds only 0.16% of total $ETH supply
→ Roughly $400M in reserves
→ Other chain foundations sit on 10% to 50% of their own supply
→ Foundation will sell even less $ETH from here on
3️⃣ EF is going lean and laser-focused
→ Picking Longevity over Breadth
→ New mandate locked to CROPS: Censorship Resistance, Openness, Privacy, Security
→ Rest of the work gets pushed to outside teams
4️⃣ Vitalik is willingly reducing his own influence
→ Says his power inside EF "will continue to decrease, which is honestly what I want"
→ Calling on "other heroes" to defend $ETH the asset, some already hold more than EF does
