Need somebody to shed lights on this: my understanding is Ethereum started with pre-farmed ethers and opened for sale in bitcoins. My two questions: 1) Any info on how many ethers the founders/founding company had farmed and holding in vault? 2) If Ethereum takes off (financially), and these early members start to dump the ethers for cash, will it crash the Ethereum economy? Bitcoin could have exactly the same issue, but I feel the difference is most people then wasn't sure if crypto currency would fly, and it is fair to reward on the risk for those who trusted and held bitcoins. Ethereum sounds like a more refined and polished business endeavour, and I feel it gets too much hype lately.
