Buterin took to Warpcast to discuss the recent transfers. There he said, “It’s not actually me selling; it’s almost always me donating to some charity, nonprofit, or other project, and the recipient selling because, well, they have to cover expenses.”

Additionally, Buterin made clear that he has sold ETH “for personal gain since 2018.” Alternatively, the statement has been verified by TrustNodes. Indeed, they reported that the $15 million sold was sent from Vitalik’s address, which belonged to a biotechnology charity he founded called Kanro.
