The Creator of Ethereum cryptocurrency Vitalik Buterin said that the size of its crypto-currency status has never reached $1 billion.

A well-known critic of bitcoin, ICO and kriptonyte overall Nouriel Roubini accused Vitalik and the head of a startup ConsenSys Joe Lubin in the theft of 75% of the proposals in the ETH course “remainingly Scam”, which supposedly was instantly made them billionaires.

The Creator of Ethereum responded by saying that never had more than 0.9% of the volume of supply of the second capitalization of the cryptocurrencies and the amount of its assets is not approaching the mark of $1 billion.

I never personally held more than ~0.9% of all ETH, and my net worth never came close to $1b. Also, I’m pretty sure there are no criminal laws against pre-mining.

One Twitter user advised doctors not to spend time on “self-proclaimed economist,” Roubini, who, most likely, is nomineren.

@Nouriel just hating because he is not holding. Vitalik don’t waste your time replying to useless outdated self proclaimed economist

Buterin also noted that Ethereum Foundation owned a maximum of 3 million ETH. Currently, the organization estimated 660 thousand coins, and the rest spent on development.

The Ethereum Foundation only ever owned ~3m, and now has ~660k; the rest was spent on development.
