The Ethereum blockchain is a decentralized, open source platform that enables the creation and execution of smart contracts. It was introduced in 2015 by Vitalik Buterin and has since become one of the most popular blockchain networks. Ethereum allows developers to build decentralized applications (DApps) on top of its blockchain, providing them with a robust infrastructure and a wide range of functionalities. Its native cryptocurrency, Ether (ETH), is used for various purposes within the network, such as paying transaction fees and incentivizing.
