On-Chain: Vitalik Buterin's Sell Plan 94% Complete, 15,500 ETH Moved Since Early February



Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin's ETH disposition plan has progressed to 94% completion, with on-chain records showing approximately 15,500 ETH sold since February 2. The overall initiative targeted around 16,400 ETH, leaving a small remainder that should conclude shortly.

These sales have been handled in measured batches to limit market impact, averaging close to $2,000 per ETH and generating over $30 million in total proceeds. As explained previously, the funds support various Ethereum ecosystem efforts, such as privacy enhancements, security research, and developer grants.

Large disposals from prominent figures can sometimes create temporary downward pressure, but the market has handled this smoothly amid the current rally. Ethereum has maintained resilience, driven by network upgrades, growing DeFi activity, and broader utility.

This process demonstrates a transparent, purpose-driven approach to managing holdings for ecosystem benefit. With the plan nearly finished, any final sales are unlikely to cause notable disruption. It also illustrates Ethereum's maturity—the protocol continues advancing strongly regardless of individual wallet movements.

On-chain visibility allows the community to follow these actions and understand the context. For ETH holders, the focus should stay on fundamentals like adoption, upgrades, and real-world use rather than isolated flows.

How do you view founder-level distributions and their influence on price? Your thoughts?
