Vitalik’s $1.1B ETH Stake: Conviction with Centralization Risk
I see Vitalik’s roughly $1.1B holding in Ethereum as a clear sign of founder conviction — he’s heavily vested in ETH yet personally modest. That alignment between creator and asset underpins the long-term narrative for the network.
At the same time, concentrated founder holdings create a tangible centralization and liquidation risk if selling behavior changes. I would monitor on-chain activity and staking/vesting details rather than treat this as an immediate buy trigger.
