How Much ETH Does Ohanian Owns?
In an interview for CNBC, Ohanian devoted a portion of the discussion to praising Ethereum. Beyond the fine words, he also said that Ethereum comprised a significant part of his funds invested in cryptocurrencies.

When asked about the most promising cryptocurrencies in the ecosystem, Ohanian assured that Dogecoin was off his radar and proceeded to throw his compliments to Ethereum:

“I do think Ethereum [has], at least for the next year or two, really got the most to prove, or at least the most potential to show something because there are so many interesting applications. So NFTs are just the start of what’s getting built on top of the Ethereum blockchain, and that’s where a lot of my holdings are candidly.”

Ethereum currently has a huge following on Reddit with over 1 million members in their subreddit community.
