It is clear that the creator of the Etherium, Vittalik Puterin, was possessed by the spirit of generosity and generosity brought by the holidays, since he had donated $ 300,000 in digital currency to three startups, as announced by a series of Twitter tweets.
The three emerging torches: ChainSafe, Prysmatic Labs and Sigma Prime received about 1,000 Vitalek etherium. All of these companies are working on the development and development of Atheros 2.0, and Prysmatic Labs is exploring ways to increase the scalability of Ethernet network transactions. ChainSafe is developing Etherium 2.0 in partnership with Sigma Prime, which works with a Lighthouse customer.
The decision was made in response to a topic on Twitter, in which some of the big names in the Ethereum community talked about ways to improve technology. Some have even recommended that lack of funding be the reason for slow development.
The founder of Prysmatic Labs and software engineer at search engine giant Google, Preston Van Leon, said that even with the recent grants, there was not enough money to develop the team. The flicker:
"The main factor that has diverted our thinking is that we are still working full-time for other jobs, and even with the most recent funds, the funds are barely enough for the entire team to pay the salaries. due, and we can not even expand the team for these reasons "
Vittalik Putrein responded generously:
"I sent you 1000 Etherium, be wise, we will only live one life"
According to CoinDesk, a second grant was awarded to Sigma Prime, when co-founder Paul Honer told Twitter that his project had been fired due to a lack of recent funding. He then said he would bring additional developers to his team if he secured funding. Puterine responded by also sending 1000 ether.
