Today, July 30, 2025, the Ethereum blockchain celebrates its 10th anniversary: its mainnet was launched on July 30, 2015, with the initial block Frontier. Over the decade, ETH has grown to become the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization and has become the foundation for DeFi, NFTs, and hundreds of decentralized applications.
To celebrate, an event is taking place: a global YouTube stream will occur today, as well as the launch of a symbolic NFT called "Ethereum Torch," which will burn and be passed between wallets, and then be burned — after the stream, everyone will be able to receive a free copy within 24 hours.
🎉 Conclusion: Ethereum's tenth anniversary is marked by an active digital and symbolic initiative, reflecting the sense of community and the technological spirit of the platform.
