About Ethereum

What is Ethereum?

Launched in 2015, Ethereum is a trading token that facilitates the operation of the Ethereum network. The operation of all programs and services on the Ethereum network requires computing power, equipment, internet connection, and maintenance.

 

What is the investment value of Ethereum?

(1)The Future of the Internet: Ethereum’s investment value lies in its potential as a dominant layer-1 smart contract network and the related ecosystem. As the internet moves into its next phase, often referred to as Web3, blockchain technologies such as Ethereum are expected to play a crucial role.

(2)Staking yield: Staking allows Ethereum holders to earn returns by delegating (“staking”) an asset and receiving “staking rewards” through the transaction verification process on the blockchain.

(3)Diversification of cryptocurrency allocations: Institutional investors often allocate to cryptocurrencies with relatively good liquidity, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. The use cases for these blockchains are very different, therefore, it is logical to diversify their allocations
