Need somebody to shed lights on this: my understanding is Ethereum started with pre-farmed ethers and opened for sale in bitcoins.<p>My two questions:<p>1) Any info on how many ethers the founders&#x2F;founding company had farmed and holding in vault?<p>2) If Ethereum takes off (financially), and these early members start to dump the ethers for cash, will it crash the Ethereum economy?<p>Bitcoin could have exactly the same issue, but I feel the difference is most people then wasn&#x27;t sure if crypto currency would fly, and it is fair to reward on the risk for those who trusted and held bitcoins.<p>Ethereum sounds like a more refined and polished business endeavour, and I feel it gets too much hype lately.
