ETH (Ethereum) is the native cryptocurrency token of the Ethereum blockchain, known as the second largest cryptocurrency in the world. It was introduced in 2015 and aims to provide not just a digital currency but a complete decentralized platform where smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps) can be built. $ETH is used to pay transaction fees, run smart contracts, and secure the network. Ethereum's vision is an internet that is free from censorship and automated, in which $ETH plays a key role.
