Market Cap: $432.54 Billion

Ethereum (ETH) is the second largest cryptocurrency, featuring technologies that make it a leader in smart contracts and cryptocurrency creation. Although its market cap ($432.54 Billion) is lower than Bitcoin, it is very popular and has achieved an annual return of 38.42%.

Although Ethereum does not enjoy the same wide acceptance as Bitcoin, it has a promising future thanks to its capabilities in executing smart contracts, and the company's continuous updates such as Ethereum 2.0.

In addition, the increasing reliance on it by companies and projects ensures the stability and sustainability of the system in the long term. However, it is important to take into account and be aware of the problem of high transaction fees, which are expected to decrease with future updates.
