Arkham Analysis: Vitalik

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin is one of the most well-known figures in crypto Twitter and has been active in the cryptocurrency space for over a decade. According to Arkham's analysis, the value of Vitalik's ETH holdings exceeds $8 billion, with a net asset growth of 1,440 times since 2015.

ETH Accounts for 99.7% of Vitalik's Cryptocurrency Assets

In the summer of 2014, Ethereum held a presale where participants paid BTC to purchase ETH. The initial supply of ETH at that time exceeded 72 million, with 16.53% allocated to the founding members. Ethereum's co-founder, Vitalik, also became a billionaire thanks to ETH.

According to Arkham's analysis chart, ETH accounts for 99.7% of Vitalik Buterin's known cryptocurrency assets. In addition, he has also invested in several cryptocurrency companies like StarkNet.

Net Worth Grew 1,440 Times Since 2015

Arkham also compiled Vitalik's ETH holdings since 2015, showing a decrease in his ETH holdings each year. However, Vitalik claims that he has not sold ETH for personal gain since 2018.

Statistics show that Vitalik is the individual with the largest ETH holdings. From December 31, 2015, to the present, Vitalik's net worth has grown by over 1,440 times.

Vitalik's Investment Philosophy

At the beginning of this year, Vitalik shared some of his investment views, endorsing diversification and offering the following financial advice:

  • Save enough to cover expenses for several years. Financial stability equals freedom.
  • Avoid excessive focus on investment portfolios.
  • Avoid investing with leverage greater than two times.

However, judging from Vitalik's own investment portfolio, he has not diversified his investments. Perhaps he has always stuck to his own field, actively participated in promoting the Ethereum ecosystem, held an optimistic view of the industry's future, and like MicroStrategy's founder Michael Saylor, maintained the role of a HODLer to create a 1,440-fold wealth growth for himself!

While there is debate over Buffett's diversified investments, what financial advice does Vitalik offer?
