ETH, the native cryptocurrency of the Ethereum blockchain, is widely regarded as the second most important digital asset after Bitcoin. Unlike Bitcoin, Ethereum supports smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps), making it the backbone of the DeFi, NFT, and Web3 ecosystems. ETH is essential for paying transaction fees and interacting with the network. With the transition to Ethereum 2.0 and proof-of-stake, it has become more energy-efficient and scalable. Investors see ETH as both a utility token and a long-term store of value. Its versatility, developer activity, and strong use cases make ETH a key asset in the crypto landscape.
