Will Ethereum fail if Vitalik dies?

[soundrum]

Not at all, Etheruem platform has grown beyond an individual and even if he dies the project will still continue to exist. He is only the face of Ethereum for now but there are many developers working behind the scenes that we do not know.

[kipozer]

Maybe Ethereum will grow on the contrary? People will start buying crypto currency, which was created by the legend of the entire market and due to this Ethereum will grow powerfully in value

Yes, this position also suits me perfectly, I also think so, because for some reason, the usual global fame comes after the death of the project founder or something else. Many examples from life.

Ethereum can function without Vitalik's supervision. It seems to me that in fact if he dies, the Ethereum Vice versa will increase in price as is the norm. While it is better not to think about it actually

If Vitalik dies, many things could happen to Ethereum (both good and bad). Within the short term, Ethereum's prices will experience a sharp decline (just like it’s happening with Bitcoin nowadays). Also, there will be a lot of FUD across mainstream media, declaring the "death" of the Ethereum project. However, after quite some time, we might be able to see Ethereum rise to its former glory, as people actively demand the "Ether" cryptocurrency for smart contracts.

Taking Vitalik out of the picture, would greatly contribute towards the decentralization of Ethereum within the long term. As such, Ethereum could remain actively developed and maintained by its community without a leader or advisor. What really matters is that Ethereum will be here to stay no matter what. For the whole project to die, something very badly needs to happen (such as a double-spend attack) which at this point is highly unlikely.

Nonetheless, I believe that investors (like me) shouldn't worry much about Vitalik's death in the future, if the Ethereum blockchain remains alive and running for years to come. It's all about user acceptance, and market adoption for Ethereum to become successful in the future. Just my opinion

What do you think will happen with Ethereum if Vitalik Buterin's death is confirmed? Will the price crash and the project fail? Or would it continue to grow into infinity and beyond? I'm concerned about this, since previously, there were rumors about Vitalik's death which caused the price of Ethereum to fall drastically within the cryptocurrency market. Fortunately, Vitalik showed proof that he was alive, which calmed the downfall of Ethereum's price.

However, if Vitalik dies, many things could happen either good or bad. Perhaps, Ethereum may fall if Vitalik dies, because he's been leading the project every step of the way. By not having a leader, the Ethereum project will disorientate itself into oblivion, IMO. Nonetheless, what are your thoughts about this?

that is a black swan. And we all know that ethereum's genius is vitalik, and when he dies a lot of people will lose their faith on ethereum. Because vitalik buterin is the brain behind the ethereum so it will really affect the price.

I consider that ETH should listem to community and try to make good changes. In other case, ETH will fail even when Vitalik lives and it would be very sad.

Company in crisis right now and I cannot see, what exactly Vitalik does for situation to improve, so I do not believe that his death will change a lot.

Wow, your opinion seems very strange, I don’t see a crisis situation with the ETH project, because now the whole cryptocurrency world is falling and doing it very much and no one knows what will happen next.

[goodluck0319]

unlikely Ethereum could die if Buterin suddenly die. Because Buterin was only a figure for the media

I sincerely doubt it will affect ethereum. Maybe on the short run, but ethereum foundation has enough programmers and developers to keep the research and development going. Vitaliks death will be categorised heavily under FA

[TamaraKul]

There will be another leader. Maybe Vitalik started it on its own, but now there is a team behind the projects, so they will manage how to develop ETH without him.

Yes, and as far as I remember, Vitalik has already spoken about who is more involved in the development of ETH, because today there is a high probability that Vitalik may in the future be comprehended by the fate of Ilon Mask, who was expelled from the post of director.

[cryptolord2077]

The maximum that can happen to the project is that the price will fall by 20% -30% and then recover as soon as the team releases positive news, for example, that the Vitalik is alive (even if it isn’t), or that someone else is equally impressive as the head of the project.

[HauntOne]

Most likely place Vitalik in the event of death is next in line. Etherium is self-sufficient and not dependent on the life and death of an individual

[cryptonewsID]

when vitalik dies then another vitalic vitalic will emerge which will continue ethereum, and also many coins that experience surges that will rival ethereum

[ka4ok1331]

Why should he die? And even if he dies, do you really think that there will be no one who would be a new leader for Ethereum? I don't think so

[Coltpython]

Satoshi Nakamoto doesn't even exist yet Bitcoin is the most powerful cryptocurrency. I think Ethereum will outlive Vitalik Buterin and I am not worried about it dipping if Vitalik dies. It may go down for a while but it will be back up before you know it as weak hands sell off

[cryptofunn]

Etherium is not only Acne. This is a whole team and Acne is one of many team members who determines the further movement and direction of the platform’s development.

[Ambers]

It seems to me that the presence of Vitalik Buterin was important for this project only at the very early stages of its development, and now the project is almost completely autonomous and no longer requires its close attention. At least if he doesn’t be there, then nothing will change much.

I personally think like that now, vitalik certainly has a reliable team and need to be convinced of his expertise.there will be a decline in prices in the short term but surely the team will defend it because ethereum already has a big name and trust in society.

Without Vitalina Butorina Ethereum will be difficult to exist, he constantly supports and recently talked about a new updated version of the coin called Ethereum 2.0 !
