Terra CEO and Ethereum CEO support Terra’s proposal to compensate ‘small wallets’

Posting on Twitter, an individual investor with the name @PersianCapital proposed to save Terra and small and medium investors. Specifically, Persian’s plan is to prioritize saving ‘small wallets’ (referring to small and medium-sized investors, who only hold a few thousand UST on Anchor Protocol) – accounting for about 99.6% of wallets holding UST present.

The proposal quickly received a lot of attention and support, including Mr. Vitalik Buterin, co-founder and CEO. Ethereum.

“Very much agree with this proposal. Here’s how to share and support small and medium holders – hit hard by a crazy promise of ‘20% interest on USD deposits’ from a ‘celebrity’ …”, Vitalik wrote on Twitter.

For the time being, the project’s reserve fund Terra estimated to be about 1.5 billion USD. On the other hand, data from Anchor Protocol shows that there are around 256,000 wallets holding UST on the platform, with the largest 1,000 wallets accounting for 82% of the total UST supply. The smallest of these “whales” hold nearly 1 million UST, so most of the relief money from the fund would go almost entirely to the “whales” if it were to be treated equally (each UST would changed to 0.3 USD), while most users of the Terra ecosystem still suffer a huge disadvantage. Therefore, PersianCapital’s priority option of compensation for “small wallets” is considered a reasonable solution, reinforcing trust in the project and will narrow the group of whales that need to be resolved later.
