Ethereum Founder Threatens to Leave While ETH Consolidates Before New Year

It looks like the cryptocurrency community could get into serious trouble if they continue with their immature and materialistic ways.

Ethereum’s founder is apparently fed up with the immaturity of the digital currency crown, and might even leave the scene if this continues.

What is Ethereum Founder Mad About?

The 23-year-old Vitalik Buterin took to Twitter on Wednesday and threatened that he would leave if the crypto communities don’t get their act together.

He said people should “differentiate between getting hundreds of billions of dollars of digital paper wealth sloshing around and actually achieving something meaningful for society.”

Buterin believes people are focusing on posting meme about luxury cars and inappropriate jokes. These are not the direction he had envisioned for the cryptocurrency world.

Ethereum Price Action

Ethereum, the second largest cryptocurrency by market cap after Bitcoin, has been hanging around the pivot level of $718 after the temporary pullback towards $472 last week.

As I covered in our 2018 cryptocurrency market overview, the pullbacks and consolidations don’t mean that we won’t see new all-time highs across the board next year. We also could see yet another pullback, whichever comes first.

ETH/USD could see a pullback towards $359 and gains towards $1,700 in the new year.

Final Thoughts…

Ethereum has actually paved the way for hundreds of initial coin offerings.

Now the total cryptocurrency market cap is around $0.5 Trillion. However, Buterin believes we have not quite earned this price explosion.

Perhaps this could lead the way for a better crypto community in the new year.

Bitcoin Drops Entering 2026: Is It Still Worth Investing? The Answer Most Investors Miss

Bitcoin has entered 2026 under pressure, with prices pulling back after a volatile period that left many investors questioning whether the opportunity has passed. Headlines are once again split between fear and optimism, with some calling the recent drop a warning sign and others viewing it as a healthy reset.

Unlike speculative assets that rely on constant growth stories, Bitcoin’s relevance continues to rest on its role as a scarce, decentralised digital asset that operates outside traditional financial systems. The key question for investors now is not whether Bitcoin will remain volatile – but whether this moment represents risk, opportunity, or something most investors misunderstand.

3 Bullish And 3 Risky Forces Shaping American Express Stock (AXP) Into 2026

American Express is often viewed as a mature, well understood credit card company, but its role in the financial system is broader than many investors realize.

It sits at the center of consumer spending, business payments, travel, credit risk, and data driven decision making. As these areas evolve, the dynamics shaping American Express stock are becoming more complex and, in some cases, less obvious.

Premium consumer behavior, business spending patterns, regulatory scrutiny, and technological change are all influencing how payment companies operate and compete.

Why Big Tech Is Quietly Buying Western Digital (WDC) Stock

Western Digital Corporation (WDC) has been on a tear, its stock price soaring over 270% year-to-date as of early December 2025.

This massive growth isn’t just hype; it’s fueled by a perfect storm of events, including the strategic spin-off of its flash business, SanDisk, and an insatiable global demand for data storage driven by the AI revolution.

As a now “pure-play” Hard Disk Drive (HDD) manufacturer, WDC is uniquely positioned as the landlord for the internet’s exploding data. But with such a meteoric rise, is there still room for growth, or is the stock overheated?
