It seems plausible most of Ethereum's IPO came from Vitalik Buterin's father Dimitry Buterin, who is a multi-millionaire.  Coming from a father who is rich also allowed Vitalik the opportunity to edit the Bitcoin Magazine, without worrying about cost of living, and later to drop out of college to pursue a startup like Ethereum.
