Ethereum Co-Founder Responds to Foundation Criticism
- Clarification of Foundation's Role: Vitalik Buterin emphasized that the Ethereum Foundation is not the center of Ethereum but rather a node with a defined purpose, continuing to focus on promoting decentralization, open-source software, and cybersecurity, thereby ensuring the long-term health of the Ethereum ecosystem.
- Tokenomics Challenges: Buterin noted that the Foundation holds only 0.16% of all ETH, significantly lower than the 10-50% typically held by other foundations, reflecting the limitations in the Foundation's ability to support token prices, which may impact investor confidence.
- Impact of Dencun Upgrade: The Dencun upgrade in March 2024 significantly reduced Ethereum's network fees, leading to a substantial decline in base layer revenue; Buterin stated that the Foundation will focus on “longevity” to address the pressures from falling token prices.
- Future Funding Strategy: The Foundation plans to reduce ETH sales to extend the longevity of its funds, having unstaked 21,270 ETH from the Lido platform in May, which means it will no longer generate yield, but does not confirm an immediate sale of those tokens.
