Just saw this Arkham report about Vitalik Buterin's ethereum owner net worth and it's kind of wild - apparently he's sitting on at least $833M based on his eth holdings alone. That's from back when eth was way higher though, so the actual number fluctuates a lot depending on price action.

The thing that got me is he's been holding like 245k eth since ethereum's launch in 2015, but he's deliberately kept it under 0.9% of total supply. Even when eth hit $3k in 2021 and briefly made him a billionaire, he didn't go crazy accumulating more. Pretty disciplined actually.

Current eth price is around $2.26k, so his known holdings are worth less than that peak, but still massive. And that's just the eth - the report mentions he's got other crypto positions too like KNCL and DEGEN. Honestly the ethereum owner net worth could be higher if you count undisclosed stuff, but $800M+ in known crypto is already pretty insane for one person.

Wild to think about how much wealth is concentrated in early ethereum contributors. Makes you wonder what the actual ethereum owner net worth looks like when you add up everyone from the early days.
