*Vitalik: Ethereum Foundation will sell less $ETH under “leaner plan”* Vitalik Buterin confirmed the Ethereum Foundation is becoming a “smaller ship” with a mandate of _“longevity over breadth”_ — and yes, that means *selling less ETH*. 6aa0 *What changed*: *1. New scope*: The EF is narrowing focus to only work “critical to Ethereum's resilience that would not happen otherwise”. Buterin says the EF should be “one node, with a defined purpose, alongside other nodes” not the center of Ethereum. *2. Treasury policy*: EF holds ∼0.16% of all ETH, far less than other chain foundations. 99.1% of EF reserves remain in ETH. The reduced sales policy frees resources for longer-term work. Buterin noted nearly 90% of his own net worth sits in ETH. *3. Technical priorities*: - *Provably bug-free Ethereum* via AI-assisted formal verification - *Lean consensus* with safety under 49% attacker scenarios - *Intermediary minimization* via FOCIL, EIP-8141, EIP-7701, Kohaku wallet *4. Context*: Comes amid researcher exodus and “mild austerity” phase announced Jan 30, 2026. EF was chartered to complete pre-launch docs — a task Buterin says was finished in 2022. *Why not stake?* Historically EF avoided staking to prevent being forced to pick sides in a contentious hard fork. Instead they fund development directly. *Market angle*: ETH at $2,108.85 today. ETF flows still driving near-term price — 10 straight days of net inflows led by ETHA $53.6M. Buterin’s “privacy reset” for 2026 is long-duration upside. Bottom line: EF pivots from broad ecosystem funding to narrow protocol stewardship. Less ETH selling = less supply pressure. Outside groups expected to fill gaps. $OPEN #OpenLedger @OpenLedger #VitalikPledgesLeanerEFFewerETHSales #FedMinutesSignalPolicyShift #AaveCEOCriticizesTVLValuation #BitcoinRisesOnIranPeaceDeal $XRP
