" Story of Ethereum "
Once upon a time, in the world of the internet, people began using something called blockchain. It was like a big digital notebook that everyone could see, but no one could change. The first big success was Bitcoin $BTC —a kind of digital money.
But a young man named Vitalik had a bigger idea. He thought, “What if we could do more than just send money? What if we could write rules, or contracts, that run by themselves?” So in 2015, he and a group of developers created Ethereum $ETH
Ethereum was special. It was not just for sending money. It was like a global computer that anyone could use. People could build apps on it, called dApps (short for “decentralized apps”). These apps didn’t need a middleman. No banks, no companies—just code and people.
To use Ethereum,$ETH people needed Ether, the digital money of the network. It was like fuel. You paid a little Ether to run apps or make transactions. This payment was called gas.
Over time, people used Ethereum to create games, art, and even new types of money called tokens. One famous example was NFT digital collectibles that lived on the blockchain.
Ethereum wasn’t perfect. It sometimes got slow or expensive. So the team upgraded it in 2022. They made it faster, cleaner, and better for the planet. This big change was called “The Merge.”
Today, Ethereum is still growing. It’s a place where dreamers, builders, and creators come together to make a new kind of internet one that belongs to everyone.
