Ethereum

Ethereum is a decentralized, open-source blockchain with smart contract functionality. It serves as a platform for developers to build and deploy decentralized applications (dApps) and various other blockchain-based projects.

It is primarily used by developers and organizations seeking to create and manage self-executing contracts, issue digital assets, and establish decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs). Ethereum's native cryptocurrency, Ether (ETH), is used for transaction fees and as a store of value within the network.
