In fact, the Ethereum community held a sale session in June 2014, which enabled initial members of the team and co-founders to get involved and amass pre-mined Ether in case the platform had difficulty producing tokens on its own.&nbsp; 
In the course of its pre-mine interval, Ethereum was exchanged between $300 and $400 per coin, putting the wallet’s value at around $20 million. However, right now the tokens have a market value of more than $116 million.

It is worth noting that the phrase “pre-mining” is used in order to describe coins that were mined before it was made accessible to everyone. This is just in contrast with Bitcoin, which is made available just as it is mined. MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor stated in July of last year that he believes <a href="https://thecoinrise.com/microstrategy-ceo-said-that-ethereum-is-classified-as-a-security/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ethereum has tremendous potential.</a> He also mentioned that Ethereum has a pre-mined coin with complex forks that may be utilized to change its features.&nbsp;
