WHAT IS ETHEREUM?

 Ethereum is open access to digital money and data-friendly services for everyone — no matter your background or location. It’s a community-built technology behind the cryptocurrency ether (ETH) and thousands of applications you can use today.

Banking for everyone: Not everyone has access to financial services. But all you need to access Ethereum and its lending, borrowing, and savings products is an internet connection.

A more private internet: You don’t need to provide all your personal details to use an Ethereum app. Ethereum is building an economy based on value, not surveillance.

A peer-to-peer network: Ethereum allows you to move money, or make agreements, directly with someone else. You don’t need to go through intermediary companies.

Censorship-resistant: No government or company has control over Ethereum. This decentralization makes it nearly impossible for anyone to stop you from receiving payments or using services on Ethereum.

Commerce guarantees: Ethereum creates a more level playing field. Customers have a secure, built-in guarantee that funds will only change hands if you provide what was agreed. You don’t need large company clout to do business.

Compatibility for the win: Better products and experiences are being built all the time because Ethereum products are compatible by default. Companies can build on each other’s success.

Shared ledger they’ve been used in double-entry bookkeeping since the 13th century. What is new is the concept of a shared, distributed ledger — an immutable record of all transactions on the network, a record that all network participants can access. With a shared ledger, transactions are recorded only once, eliminating the duplication of effort that’s typical of traditional business networks Permissions Blockchains can be permissioned or permissionles...
