Vitalik's associated address sold 190 ETH again, causing criticism. I clarify: it's not me
Yesterday, the affiliated address of Vitalik Buterin, the founder of Ethereum, sold another 190 ETH worth approximately $440000. The address has sold 760 ETH in the past two weeks, sparking critici** and ridicule from the community regarding Vitalik's sale of Ethereum.
This address has received a total of 3800 ETH from Vitalik in the past month.
Regarding yesterday's transaction, Vitalik clarified on the community today that the wallet belongs to the "Biodefense Fund" that he had previously funded, and last night's transaction was initiated by the fund, and the transaction was already set up as a TWAP automatic trading order on CowSwap as early as August 29th.
In addition, Vitalik also claimed that this coin transaction was already the last sell order, which seems to be correct because the 945 ETH held by the address five hours ago and the 2.277 million USDC sold during this period were all deposited into Aave, indicating that there is no intention of further selling in the short term.
