Launched in 2015 by Vitalik Buterin, Ethereum is a decentralized, open-source blockchain featuring smart contract functionality. Unlike Bitcoin, Ethereum serves as a global programmable platform for decentralized applications (dApps), non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and Decentralized Finance (DeFi). As the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, ETH is the foundational asset powering a vast ecosystem of innovation.
