Ethereum: more than just a cryptocurrency

Ethereum is a decentralized digital platform that goes beyond being just a cryptocurrency. Launched in 2015 by Vitalik Buterin and other developers, it enables the creation of smart contracts, which are self-executing codes with predefined rules, without the need for intermediaries.

Unlike Bitcoin, which is focused on being a digital currency, Ethereum was designed as a foundation for decentralized applications (the so-called dApps). This means that developers can create games, financial services, social networks, and much more, all running on the Ethereum blockchain.

Its native currency is called Ether (ETH) and is used both for transactions and to pay network usage fees. With the evolution of technology, Ethereum has undergone significant updates, such as The Merge, which changed its validation model from proof of work to proof of stake, making it more efficient and sustainable.
