Ethereum is a decentralized, open-source blockchain platform that enables smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps). It was proposed by Vitalik Buterin in late 2013 and launched in 2015. Ethereum allows developers to build and deploy blockchain-based applications without relying on intermediaries, offering a secure, transparent environment. Its native cryptocurrency, Ether (ETH), is used to pay for transaction fees and computational services. Ethereum is considered the foundation for decentralized finance (DeFi), non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and various blockchain innovations. With ongoing upgrades like Ethereum 2.0, it continues to evolve and scale to support a broader range of applications.
