ETH Co-Founder Vitalik Buterin Warns Folks

Vitalik Buterin, the Ethereum (ETH) co-founder, has recently highlighted views regarding the projects promising good returns in the current times. He cited that there are no genuine investments that can even get closer to 20% returns annually. 

This seems to be following his analysis of the recent meltdown that the Terra blockchain witnessed. And it gave a spark to the overall crypto market selloff. 

Terra’s meltdown came as a shock to everyone in the crypto community. TerraUSD (UST) and LUNA slipped to zero, which became a major factor in the bear market. It wiped out around $60 Billion in just Terra coins. 

As reported by Bloomberg Buterin signified in a statement, the greater level of scrutiny in DeFI financial mechanisms, especially those that they try very hard to optimize for capital efficiency, is highly welcome. 

And that the greater acknowledgment that present performance is no guarantee of future returns is even more welcome. 

Furthermore, he also recommends evaluating more rigorously how safe systems are by looking at their steady-state and their pessimistic state to see how they perform under extreme conditions and if they can safely wind down. And warned of other risks related to the automated stablecoins, such as technical glitches. 

The Ethereum (ETH) co-founder Vitalik Buterin asserted last week that he is not a billionaire anymore following the massive wipeout of crypto fortunes. The billionaires in the crypto space have announced their losses without hesitating due to the sudden crash in the crypto market after sell-offs in TerraUSD (UST) and LUNA.

The bearish trends taking a forward move in the crypto market earlier in April have wiped billions of dollars in market value in just a month.

At the time of writing, the second largest crypto asset Ethereum (ETH), is trading at $1,769 with a market cap of $213,999,366,758 and is down by around 3.4% in the last twenty-four hours.
