Steven Neyaroff has accused Vitalik Buterin and Joseph Lubin of fraudulent activities.
Neyaroff has promised to release evidence within 48 hours.
If proven true, Neyaroff's claims could have a significant impact on Ethereum's reputation and future.
In a surprising or rather, shocking, turn of events, Steven Neyaroff, a key player in Ethereum’s early days, has leveled serious accusations against the platform’s founders, Vitalik Buterin and Joseph Lubin. Neyaroff, using X (formerly Twitter), has vowed to reveal compelling evidence within the next 48 hours, alleging fraudulent activities by the Ethereum creators.
Here’s what he has to say.
Neyaroff’s Allegations
Neyaroff’s statements have increasingly targeted Buterin, suggesting deeper involvement in what he describes as deceptive practices.
โRemember this video when I drop the recording & what I tell Vitalik about 2.0 and to fix misaligned incentive structures. Is Vitalik the savior they bill him as to make Ethereum scale, or is he the reason it never scaled? Decide for yourselves.โ
Buterin is the Target
Neyaroff’s recent messages increasingly focus on Vitalik Buterin, suggesting deeper involvement in what he calls deceptive practices. He confidently questions Buterin’s role in Ethereum’s struggle to scale, hinting at a lack of innovation.
Questioning Buterin’s originality, Neyaroff asserts that Ethereum’s challenges in scaling can be directly linked to a lack of innovative solutions from Buterin. The cryptocurrency world is left wondering whether Buterin is the scaling savior he’s touted to be or a hindrance to Ethereum’s growth.
Fraudulent ICOs?
In a shocking twist, Neyaroff accuses Buterin and Lubin of orchestrating fraudulent initial coin offerings (ICOs), claiming these schemes have significantly hampered the cryptocurrency industry’s growth. According to Neyaroff, these ICOs weren’t just diversions but deliberate attempts to profit at the industry’s expense.
โOnly killer app was issuing Utility Tokens on ICOs, which I invented. Vitalik & Lubin sabotaged crypto. Their focus was merely to issue hundreds or thousands of fraudulent ICOs fleecing people.โ
