The Ethereum co-founder said the Ethereum Foundation is not the center of the network as he responded to complaints about strategy, leadership changes, and continued ETH sales.
Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of Ethereum, said the blockchain network must be "amazing" and argued that the Ethereum Foundation is not the center of Ethereum. His comments came in response to criticism over the foundation’s unclear strategy, leadership turnover, and continued sales of ETH, Ethereum’s native token. The remarks highlight a recurring tension in decentralized blockchain ecosystems, where community members often scrutinize whether influential organizations are shaping development too heavily despite the network’s broader governance and contributor base.
