More about Ethereum (ETH)
Ethereum is a decentralized platform that enables the creation and execution of smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps) without any downtime, fraud, control, or interference from a third party. It operates on its native cryptocurrency, Ether (ETH), which is used to compensate participants performing computations and transactions. Ethereum's blockchain technology not only supports a wide range of applications but also introduces a new paradigm of economic operations, where users can transact directly without needing traditional financial intermediaries.
Ether (ETH) serves multiple purposes within the Ethereum ecosystem. It is used as a digital currency, similar to Bitcoin, allowing users to store value and make payments. Beyond its monetary function, ETH is essential for executing smart contracts and running dApps on the Ethereum network. Developers need ETH to pay for transaction fees and services on the Ethereum network, making it the backbone of Ethereum's decentralized platform.
