Vitalik Buterin reclaims ‘onchain billionaire’ crown as Ether tops $4.2K
Vitalik Buterin’s net worth could be bolstered even more as crypto traders are eyeing new all-time highs for Ether in just days.
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has regained his status as a ten-figure crypto holder just days after Ether crossed the $4,000 price level for the first time in eight months, according to a blockchain intelligence firm.
“Vitalik Buterin is now an onchain billionaire again,” Arkham said in a post on Saturday. At the time of publication, Buterin’s portfolio is valued at approximately $1.04 billion, holding 240,042 ETH alongside smaller stakes in cryptocurrencies such as Aave Ethereum (AETHWETH), WhiteRock (WHITE), Moo Deng (MOODENG), and Wrapped Ethereum (WETH).
On Saturday, Ether (ETH) climbed another 6.38%, reaching as high as $4,332 following its return to $4,000 on Friday — a level not seen since December 2024 — while Bitcoin’s share of the crypto market cap declined.
