$ETH
Ethereum (ETH) is a decentralized blockchain platform that enables smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps), revolutionizing how value and data are exchanged online. As the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, ETH powers a vast ecosystem including DeFi, NFTs, and DAOs. Unlike Bitcoin, Ethereum is programmable, allowing developers to build complex applications on its network. With the recent transition to proof-of-stake via Ethereum 2.0, it’s now more energy-efficient and scalable. ETH, the platform’s native currency, is used for transactions, gas fees, and staking. Ethereum continues to lead innovation in Web3, shaping the future of decentralized finance and digital infrastructure.
