Ethereum Foundation to Sell 10,000 ETH: A Blockchain Betrayal or Just Tuesday? 🍿

In a shocking twist that’s rocking the crypto world (and by “crypto world” we mean three guys in a Discord server), the Ethereum Foundation has announced it’ll be dumping 10,000 ETH through centralized exchanges. Because nothing says “trust us, we’re decentralized” like using the blockchain equivalent of a pawn shop. 🤡

Oh, sweet summer child! The EF claims this fire sale is to fund “research, grants, and donations” – because obviously, the best way to advance innovation is to slowly suffocate the market with a thousand tiny trades. 🐍 They’ve promised to split the sales into “smaller orders” to “reduce market impact.” Sure, Jan. We believe you. Like tossing confetti off a skyscraper won’t make a mess. 🎉

The “transparency notice” (wink-wink, nudge-nudge) frames this as “operational funding.” Oh, how *thoughtful*. And no, they won’t tell us which exchanges or timelines – because mystery boxes are so much more fun! 🎁 But hey, at least they’re “managing the process deliberately.” Because nothing says “deliberate” like panicking the plebeians every time a whale sneezes. 🐋💸

So there you have it: Ethereum’s grand plan to “advance the ecosystem” involves selling off the digital equivalent of the Hope Diamond… one pawn shop at a time. 🏦✨ Spoiler alert: It’s probably not going to end well. 🚨 (But hey, at least we’ll get some spicy market drama. Popcorn emoji again? 🍿)
