A friend recently asked me about this, so I thought I’d put together a quick summary.
Ethereum’s mainnet officially launched on July 30, 2015.
The biggest difference between Ethereum and Bitcoin is that Ethereum has a Turing-complete virtual machine, allowing developers to deploy smart contracts and applications on the blockchain.
$ETH is Ethereum’s native coin, which Vitalik helped create. Currently: 2373.82.
Had you heard about this before?
