Ethereum developer Nina Breznik tweeted a couple of days ago that Ethereum Foundation will stop funding internal teams from next year and stated that the funding would first stop for the youngest projects. Breznik currently works on projects like Smart Contract Codes and DatDot, while previously being involved with EthereumRemix and Wizard Amigos.
As some might already know, Ethereum Foundation is planning to stop funding for most of the internal teams in the next year.
I joined about 3 years ago and was working for 2 years on Remix and then in the last year on PlayProject.

“We are a team of 3 people and in the past year, we were building this super lightweight, embeddable solidity editor. We also built a workshop module with a decentralized skill tree which embeds the editor. But next to it, we were also started with the search engine for solidity source code. For the past 5 years, we are as volunteers also working on onboarding new developers into coding, specially into javascript and p2p world, and into self-employment. We run meetups and organize workshops in Berlin, Taipei, and Lagos.”
Interestingly, Tron Foundation Chief, Justin Sun offered to fund all the troubled Ethereum developers to migrate their work on the TRON blockchain.
We would love to fund #Ethereum developers to migrate their works to #TRON. Super easy! Always #BUIDL! https://t.co/hD3g7AzQrL

Justin Sun’s prompt offer to Ethereum developers has received diverse reactions from crypt enthusiasts. Some accused him of wanting to “buyout” other developers just for publicity, while a few reminded him that there a lot of TRON projects that he must fund first.

As there hasn’t been any official statement yet, it is too early to do ETH price prediction anything now. It is better to wait and watch what more is in store.
