Justin Sun: „If EF and Ethereum Were Under My Leadership
“ETH to $10,000”
My First Week Plan
1. Halt ETH Sales immediately and Optimize Revenue
EF will immediately cease selling ETH for at least three years. Operational costs will be covered through AAVE lending, staking yields, and stablecoin borrowing. This ensures ETH supply remains intact, aligning with our deflationary goals and reinforcing market confidence.
2. Heavily Tax Layer 2 Solutions immediately
Significant taxes will be imposed on all Layer 2 projects, ensuring Ethereum generates at least $5 billion annually in taxes (whether in stablecoin or tokens). All collected taxes will be used to repurchase ETH and burn it in a fully decentralized manner, period.
3. Streamline EF Operations
EF staff will undergo a drastic downsizing, retaining only the most capable team members. Remaining employees will receive significant salary increases, transitioning EF into a purely merit-based system that rewards performance and results.
4. Adjust Rewards and Increase Fee Burns
Node rewards will be reduced, and more emphasis will be placed on fee-burning mechanisms. This ensures Ethereum remains DEFLATIONARY, solidifying its position as a store of value.
5. Focus Exclusively on Layer 1 and ETH reaches $10,000
All resources will be redirected toward Ethereum’s core Layer 1 development, prioritizing scalability, security, and adoption and ETH reaches $10,000.
With these decisive actions, ETH is poised to break $4,500 within the first week, setting the foundation for long-term success.“
