And he's not alone. The Ethereum Foundation has lost at least 8 senior contributors in 2026 — five in May alone. Tomasz Stańczak (co-Executive Director). Barnabé Monnot. Tim Beiko. Alex Stokes (sabbatical). Stark. Van Epps. Dankrad Feist. Synthetix founder Kain Warwick alleges Vitalik Buterin's direct interventions caused the exodus — with Solana reportedly offering up to $2M annual packages to lure EF talent away.
Author and longtime ETH investor William Mougayar didn't sugarcoat it on The Defiant: "If everybody is up in arms because six or seven people left, there's going to be MORE leaving, and it was by design. Expect LESS from the EF."
🥋 Sensei's take: when ETH's own biggest podcast champion sells everything, when 8 senior leaders walk out, when Solana is poaching with $2M paychecks — that's not a "vibe shift." That's a leadership crisis. And here's where it matters for XRP: XRPL just flipped BNB Chain to #4 globally in RWA ex-stablecoins. Ethereum is the next target. Combined with DTCC's $100T platform naming Ripple Prime, CLARITY Act's July signing, and Trump's Fed EO opening crypto access — XRP doesn't need ETH to fail. But if ETH stumbles, XRP is the structural beneficiary.
