The inventor of Ethereum (ETH) is Vitalik Buterin.
Vitalik Buterin is a Russian-Canadian programmer and writer who proposed Ethereum in late 2013. The development of the platform began in early 2014, with a team including other co-founders such as:
Gavin Wood (who authored the Ethereum Yellow Paper and co-founded Polkadot)
Joseph Lubin (who later founded ConsenSys)
Anthony Di Iorio
Charles Hoskinson (who later founded Cardano)
Mihai Alisie
Amir Chetrit
Ethereum officially launched on July 30, 2015.
Vitalik's vision was to build a decentralized platform that goes beyond Bitcoin's capabilities, enabling smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps).
