Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said the Ethereum Foundation will choose “longevity over breadth,” reduce $ETH sales and narrow its focus to CROPS: censorship resistance, capture resistance, openness, privacy and security. In a lengthy post on X, Buterin detailed that the Ethereum Foundation holds roughly 0.16% of all $ETH, well below the 10% to 50% he said it’s common for the central foundations of other blockchains to hold. Nearly 90% of his own net worth sits in $ETH, with the remaining roughly $40 million in onchain fiat already earmarked for open-source biotech, software and hardware initiatives, Buterin added.
