One among the co-founders of Ethereum, Anthony Di Iorio, has declared that he is quitting the crypto space. He is reportedly said to have founded Decentral (a software company based in Toronto), mentioning some individual safety concerns to be the cause at the back of his departure.

Di Iorio: co-founding another firm

Keeping this in view, he has been planning to promote Decentral since its beginning in 2014. Just after a year, he signed a deal with Gavin Wood and Vitalik Buterin to construct Ethereum. The native token of Ethereum called ETH has steadily ranked as being exceptionally valuable after BTC in regard the market capitalization.

In the meantime, a crypto wallet named Jaxx has been launched by Di Iorio under Decentral.

The other links of Di Iorio with crypto companies and projects are also to be terminated by him. It has been reported that he will rather move toward philanthropic activities that are external to the space of cryptocurrency.

Co-founders of ETH seeking solo achievements

Although Di Iorio is the initial to quit crypto absolutely, he cannot be counted as the only one among the co-founders of Ethereum to run a separate business.

Charles Hoskinson, like Di Iorio, exited Ethereum in the year 2014. Following the lapse of some months, he joined his colleague Jeremy Wood to create Cardano. A lot of milestones like reaching more than 650K staking addresses were reported at June’s end. Only two weeks after the announcement of the network’s testnet Alonzo’s launch, it was capable of running smart contracts. The reports disclose that the hard fork of Alonzo White had been successfully made functional by Cardano.

On the other hand, the parallel co-founder, Vitalik Buterin, persisted in staying with Ethereum lead it. At the age of 19, he contributed to found the firm. Recently in June, Vitalik commented on the success of his earlier fellow Hoskinson through Cardano by describing that exciting things were occurring there. Moreover, he claimed that Charles of 2021 is unlike the Charles of 2014, and Vilalk of 2021 is also unlike that of 2014.

Another co-founder of Etheraum named Gavin Wood abandoned the firm in 2016. In the same year, a company named PolkaDot was founded by him. The native currency of the firm ‘DOT’ was recently listed 9th significantly valuable digital currency in the market cap, according to the reports. The data shows that the market capitalization of the firm has exceeded $11.6B.
