What Is Ethereum?
Ethereum is a decentralized blockchain that lets developers build applications and smart contracts without relying on banks or tech giants. These smart contracts are self-executing agreements written in code that allow transactions to happen automatically when conditions are met, removing the need for intermediaries. The technology Ethereum introduced has powered decentralized finance (DeFi), NFTs, and the Web3 movement, making ETH a key player in blockchain innovation.
Launched in 2015 by Vitalik Buterin and a team of developers, Ethereum was designed to go beyond Bitcoin’s simple transactions by creating a flexible, programmable network. Over the years, it has undergone major upgrades, most notably The Merge in 2022, which shifted Ethereum from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake. This change cut energy consumption by over 99%, and allowed holders to stake their ETH, thus helping secure the network while earning rewards.
Ethereum operates its own Layer 1 blockchain, but Layer 2 solutions exist, for example Arbitrum and Optimism. These help scale the network by reducing fees and boosting the speed of transactions. Unlike Bitcoin with its fixed supply, Ethereum adjusts the volume of assets in circulation dynamically, burning a portion of transaction fees to help manage inflation.
As adoption continues to grow, companies like Visa, JPMorgan, and even governmental bodies are exploring Ethereum’s use in payments and digital identity. With the continued development of blockchain technology, Ethereum remains at the forefront, driving the next generation of decentralized applications.
