All I want for Christmas is $11 million
12/25/2019 AD sold

Ethereum co-founder Jeffrey Wilcke doxxed himself after selling 92,000 Ether, worth over $11 million, because of its connection to his Ethereum Name Service domain.

On Christmas Day, approximately 92,000 ETH was transferred to Kraken from an address funded by the Ethereum Foundation dev wallet, as first reported by Trustnodes. These funds were from the pre-mine associated with the project’s ICO. Immediately after the connection to Wilcke was uncovered, some Ethereans began to criticize. Richard Burton, a designer who had a two month stint at the Ethereum Foundation, said of Wilcke:

“People who did basically nothing made off with hundreds of thousands of Ether. People who did huge amounts of work later were given so much less.” He added, “given that you were awarded so much ETH, you should use that money to help Ethereum.”
