Ethereum (ETH) is a leading blockchain platform that enables decentralized applications (dApps) and smart contracts. Launched in 2015 by Vitalik Buterin, Ethereum revolutionized the blockchain industry by allowing developers to create programmable, trustless systems. Its native cryptocurrency, Ether (ETH), is used for transaction fees, staking, and governance. Ethereum transitioned from Proof of Work to the energy-efficient Proof of Stake mechanism in 2022, reducing its environmental impact. As a hub for DeFi, NFTs, and Web3, Ethereum drives innovation in finance and technology. With ongoing upgrades like sharding, Ethereum aims to enhance scalability and maintain its dominance in the blockchain ecosystem.
