Ethereum ETH +2.75% Foundation researcher Danny Ryan is stepping away from the Ethereum ecosystem after seven years of contributions. 

Ryan attributes his departure to personal reasons and to create room for other opportunities, according to a Friday post on GitHub. He added that his reason for leaving is "not a reflection of any facet of Ethereum, core development or crypto at large."

"Being at one of the many helms that is the complex ship of Ethereum is an all-consuming experience, and although one of the greatest experiences of my life, it is one that I'm ready to relinquish, making space for other things," Ryan said.

"I showed up many years ago as 'a random person from the internet.' I found the doors wide-open. I found my place and got a few things done," Ryan added. "And, now I'm ready to take a step back and come up for air."

Ryan served as a lead coordinator for Ethereum's shift to a proof-of-stake consensus system known as The Merge, and oversaw the launch of the Beacon Chain in 2021. He also contributed to the Ethereum Foundation's blog, including progress updates for Ethereum Improvement Proposals, The Block previously reported.

Ether, the native token of the Ethereum blockchain, is the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. A single ether traded at $2,416 as of 4:04 p.m. ET (20:04 UTC) on Sept. 13, according to The Block prices.
