$ETH
Ethereum, is the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization after Bitcoin. Launched in 2015 by Vitalik Buterin and others, Ethereum is more than just a digital currency—it’s a decentralized platform that enables smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps) to run without downtime, fraud, or interference.
Ethereum’s blockchain is the foundation for many DeFi projects, NFTs, and decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs). With the shift to Ethereum 2.0 and its Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism, ETH has become more energy-efficient while aiming for greater scalability and security.
ETH isn’t just a currency—it’s a driving force behind the decentralized internet.
