Ethereum is a global network that allows users to directly control assets, data, and identities. As a reliable internet infrastructure, Ethereum has been operating securely for over 10 years since its launch in 2015. The network has over 292 million ETH holders and has become the blockchain platform of choice for financial institutions like Mastercard, Visa, and JPMorgan.
Ethereum’s core advantages include direct ownership, transparent rules, global accessible without barriers, and account creation without credit checks. Through DeFi applications, users can earn higher deposit interest, make low-cost international remittances, and obtain credit without a credit history. The network is community-governed, with no single owner, and all code is open and transparent.
