Vitalik Buterin Unveils Amount of ETH he Holds, Nouriel Roubini Accuses him of I

[Goodcat49]

Vitalik Buterin, the founder of the Ethereum (ETH) blockchain, has disclosed the amount of ETH he's holding. Vitalik reacted to accusations by NYU economist and critic of digital currencies Nouriel Roubini, who tagged Vitalik and ETH cofounder Joseph Lubin as great thieves and illicit scammers.

“I never personally held more than ~0.9% of all ETH,” said Buterin in a tweet. “My net worth never came close to $1b. Also, I'm pretty sure there are no criminal laws against pre-mining.”
Hours later Vitalik issued a statement with detailed data on all his trades and holdings. From the statement, Vitalik holds less than 365,003 ETH, which is worth no more than $73.7 million. During ETH's apex last year, that amount would have been worth over $500 million, but according to Vitalik, he had 'significantly no more than 0.9%' of all Ethereum at the moment.

The Hot Seat
Vitalik did ratify he has other addresses but said they are 'somehow small' compared to the one he shared. He further indicated the ETH Foundation presently holds almost $660,000 and has a maximum owned almost $3 million.

Nicknamed 'Dr. Doom' for forecasting the 2008 financial crisis, Roubini then indicted Vitalik of nauseous actions after the ETH founder tweeted a forecast for a financial crisis 'sometime between today and 2021'. Vitalik's statement appeared to be a blow at financial apocalyptics who endeavour to forecast financial crises.
