Co -founder of Ethereum Vitalik Buterin threw support for the so -called Ether tax companies, but warned the trend that can keep the “game of excessively breakthrough” if it is not supported responsibly.
In an interview with Bankless podcast released On Thursday, Buterin said that the growing number of public companies buying and holding the ether (ETH) was valuable because they expose the token to a wider scope of investors.
“There are definitely valuable services that are provided there,” said Baryin. He added that instead of keeping the token, companies buying State Treasury companies give people “more options”, especially those with “different financial circumstances”.
The so -called cryptocurrency tax companies have become the hottest trend on Wall Street, winning billions of dollars to buy and have a swath of cryptocurrencies to give traders exposure to tokens, with the most popular pieces are Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether.

He presented the worst chain reaction, in which the decrease in the price of ETH turned into forced liquidation, which caught and forced the price of the token, also causing a loss of credibility.
