🧠 A Brief History of Ethereum
In 2013, a 19-year-old named Vitalik Buterin proposed Ethereum — a blockchain not just for money, but for smart contracts and decentralized apps. By July 2015, Ethereum went live, unlocking a new era of Web3 innovation. 🌐
From ICO booms to DeFi, NFTs, and DAOs, Ethereum has become the backbone of a new decentralized internet.
In 2022, the network made history again — transitioning from Proof of Work to Proof of Stake with The Merge, reducing energy use by over 99%. ♻️
Ethereum isn’t just a blockchain — it’s a movement.
