Vitalik Buterin refutes claims of selling Ethereum for profit

Vitalik Buterin refutes claims of selling Ethereum for profit

On Friday, August 30th, Golden Finance reported that blockchain data tracker Lookonchain revealed that Buterin transferred 800 ETH (worth about $2 million) to a multi-signature wallet. Shortly thereafter, the recipient address exchanged 190 ETH for 477,000 USDC. This latest transfer prompted a member of the encryption community on X to accuse Buterin of ignoring comments on his recent ETH transfer. Subsequently, another encryption community responded that there was nothing wrong with Ethereum co-founder profiting from selling ETH. However, Buterin responded to the supportive post on X, claiming that he had not sold any ETH for profit. He stated, "Since 2018, I have never sold and retained profits. All sales have been used to support various projects that I believe are valuable, whether within the Ethereum ecosystem or broader charitable institutions (such as biomedical research)."
