About Ethereum
Ethereum is a global, open-source blockchain platform designed for running decentralized applications (dApps) and executing programmable transactions through code called smart contracts.
The network uses the native cryptocurrency ETH, which acts as the fuel for executing operations and paying for transactions and computation (often referred to as gas).
Smart contracts enable a wide range of use cases without intermediaries, including:
- Decentralized finance (DeFi)
- Non-fungible tokens (NFTs)
- Decentralized applications (dApps) across various industries
- DAOs, marketplaces, games, and more
Key features:
- Turing-complete smart contracts: can encode complex rules and logic
- EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine): executes contract code across a decentralized network
Upgrades and evolution:
Transition to proof of stake (PoS) consensus with the Ethereum 2.0 roadmap (merges, sharding planned) to improve scalability and energy efficiency.
ETH is not only a payment token but also a stake in the network’s security and capacity to run dApps. Demand for gas, network activity, and staking-related dynamics influence price movements.
The Ethereum ecosystem is supported by a large developer community, extensive tooling, and a growing suite of DeFi and NFT projects.
