Vitalik Buterin Net Worth in 2025
Vitalik Buterin, founder of Ethereum has disclosed a net worth of more than a billion dollars, $1.02B to be exact.
The billion-dollar holdings include 240,000 ethereum, 2906 AETHWETH tokens and more. That said, the whole portfolio is still ethereum-heavy and with the ethereum price crossing $4200, the total worth is now more than a billion. Other tokens in his portfolio include WHITE, MOODENG, KNC, WETH, DINU and TRUE.
His hands-off approach to risky derivatives stands out: no major sell-offs, just periodic staking and protocol moves, showing conviction and risk discipline.
Not many people can hold onto their investments despite pretending to be super-wise. Take Arthur Hayes, for example, co-founder of BitMex exchange, who sold 2373 ethereum a week back, only to buy it back at a much higher price of $4200 today.
Vitalik has once again proven to us that crypto is no joke – in fact, his big cryptocurrencies are like national treasuries. More and more companies are going after ethereum as bitcoin goes in to price discovery. Ethereum has been in bear market since 2022 and it took it nearly 2.5 years to get out of it.
It is still under previous all time high and other altcoins and memecoins are expected to follow Ethereum.
