Vitalik Buterin announces EF downsizing, reduced ETH sales; long-short game intensifies

Event Interpretation

Vitalik Buterin posted that the EF will downsize and pledged to reduce ETH sales, while disclosing that 90% of his net worth is held in ETH, directly alleviating market concerns about continued selling pressure from the foundation.
The EF has long been considered one of the largest sources of structural selling pressure for ETH; this official statement changes that expectation.
According to on-chain data, after the news was released, a whale opened a $100 million short position on ETH. Long-short divergence is evident, and it remains to be seen whether the EF's pledge to reduce sales will be implemented.
