The world of cryptocurrency is incredibly diverse, with thousands of different coins and tokens in existence, each with its own unique characteristics and use cases. Bitcoin, the first and most well-known cryptocurrency, was conceived as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system. Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, introduced the concept of smart contracts – self-executing contracts with the terms of the agreement directly written into code. These smart contracts have paved the way for a vast ecosystem of decentralized applications (dApps) in areas like decentralized finance (DeFi), non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and more.
