Regular reminder:

If you see an article saying "Vitalik sends XXX ETH to [exchange]", it's not actually me selling, it's almost always me donating to some charity or nonprofit or other project, and the recipient selling because, well, they have to cover expenses.

I haven't "sold" ETH for personal gain since 2018.

If they use our self banking setup they dont need to exit so abruptly. They can use their ETH as USDC and spend it straight from a credit card with an array of card controls or they can use bill pay tools and ACH out. 

Advantages:
- no lockups on use of funds like a bank would have
- tax events are controllable
