Two more important names left the Ethereum Foundation this week: Carl Beek and Julian Ma. before them, other developers had already left the project in recent months.
part of the community is now questioning if there are internal problems inside Ethereum, especially after ETH’s weak performance this cycle.
some people think this is normal for big projects. others see it as a possible sign of a crisis inside the foundation
Market price has nothing to do with developers' departure from the project. I think the main reason they left, was because they shifted their focus into other emerging industries. Like the AI industry, for example. Or they simply moved on to rival projects. Ethereum can do fine without them, because it's a community coin. There are many other volunteers working on it, to keep it the best crypto in the world (after Bitcoin).
Unlike many of ETH's competitors, ETH is driven by solid, concrete results. It prioritizes usability over hype/speculation. As long as there's someone working on the project, there should be nothing to worry about. Hopefully, the Foundation attracts new talented minds in the long-term. Just my opinion.
