What is Ethereum (ETH)?

Ethereum is a cryptocurrency developed by the Russian-Canadian programmer Vitalik Buterin and his co-founders Mihai Alisie, Anthony Di Iorio, Charles Hoskinson, Joseph Lubin and Gavin Wood. Ethereums whitepaper was published in 2013 with proposals for a new cryptocurrency based on the idea of creating blockchain networks with a more general scripting language to develop multiple applications based on so-called smart contracts. After a token sale in 2014, the Ethereum project finally launched in 2015.
