Ethereum $ETH is like the Swiss Army knife of blockchain: both smart contracts, DeFi, NFTs, and the tokenization of everything that moves (and even what doesn't).
Why Ethereum is a game-changer:
• Smart contracts — automated agreements without intermediaries
• DeFi — banks are already nervously smoking on the sidelines
• NFT — created an entire digital culture
• Crazy update — the transition to Proof-of-Stake reduced energy consumption by 99%
• Ethereum 2.0 = scalability, speed, eco-friendliness
And most importantly — most crypto innovations are launched precisely on Ethereum. If the crypto market is a city, then Ethereum is its central station.
