Wintermute founder: Goals are more important than price, will continue to hold ETH long-term

PANews reported on March 15 that Wintermute founder and CEO Evgeny Gaevoy stated, "The Ethereum Foundation released a mission statement, and what I see more is criticism rather than celebration, which is reasonable. After all, most of us in the crypto industry have transitioned into the existing world system. More seriously, the Ethereum Foundation is currently the only player with both resources and network effects that can not only maintain the dream of cypherpunks but also truly realize it. Will this reflect in the price of Ethereum in the short term? Definitely not. Will it in the long term? Only if it succeeds. Should we care about the price? Personally, I believe the goal is more important. I absolutely think that at least someone should try to achieve this goal on a macro level, rather than just pursuing financial applications. The rest can choose to do what they do or decide whether to hold ETH. To be honest, holding it long-term is a very long bet, but compared to other worse 'faiths', it's still acceptable, so I will continue to hold my ETH for the culture and memes."
