$ETH

ETH stands for Ethereum, which is a decentralized blockchain platform that enables smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps) to run without any downtime, fraud, or interference. ETH (Ether) is the native cryptocurrency of the Ethereum network, used to pay for transactions and computational services. Developers use Ethereum to build projects like decentralized finance (DeFi) apps, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and more. Launched in 2015 by Vitalik Buterin and others, Ethereum aims to create a global, open-source platform for innovation. Ether also acts as a store of value and a medium of exchange, similar to traditional money but in digital form.
