If Bitcoin is best thought of as digital money, Ethereum is closer to a programmable platform that money and apps can be built on top of. It launched in 2015 and was proposed by a young developer named Vitalik Buterin along with a group of co-founders. Ethereum introduced a way to run small programs, called smart contracts, on a shared global network. That single idea opened the door to everything from lending apps to digital collectibles. This guide walks through what Ethereum is, the role of its coin Ether, and how the network keeps running.
