Happy birthday Ethereum. Today is the birthday of Ethereum, the leader of altcoins in the cryptocurrency world. Let’s look at the details together, shall we?
Ethereum is eight years old
How quickly time has passed, isn’t it? Actually, it seems like yesterday. There was no altcoin wind in the market in those days. Maybe most of us were just beginning to hear about cryptocurrencies. Suddenly, after the Bitcoin wind, another wind started to blow. The name of this wind was Ethereum ETH, which will be the leader of altcoins in the future.
When the dates came to 30 July 2015, there was a completely different development. At that time, ETH’s genesis block was uploaded for the first time. Today, the dates show 30 July 2023. On the other hand, it has been exactly eight years since the Ethereum Foundation announced the launch of the ETH network.
Bugün #Ethereum #ETH 'nin doğum günü…..
Nice yıllara Ethereum….

Stephen Taul, former CCO of the Ethereum Foundation, made the announcement

Also, what was in the announcement? It was an exciting development. The old faces of the cryptocurrency space remember those days. There was enthusiasm. Slowly and deeply.
At this point, Taul made his statements for Ethereum ETH. It was actually a statement thanking the development team. While talking about the efforts made accordingly, he stated that as the development team, they worked day and night for a year and a half. There were references to the modest commitment they made in 2013 in his speech. He described the progress made as incredible. The explanation was as follows.
“As the development team, I want to thank you all for your support over the past year and a half. It’s incredible to see the progress made since that humble initial commitment on Christmas Eve 2013.”
world computer vision
It wasn’t limited to just that. It was a reference to a future that anyone could program. There was talk of a censored world computer that they could only pay for using. Now this vision of the world computer was also a reality. Since then, Ethereum has become the second largest blockchain ecosystem. The project’s own cryptocurrency, ETH, has a market cap of $227 billion.
Ethereum has been brought to life by a number of prominent crypto figures, including Vitalik Buterin, who continues to contribute actively to the network. It took its place in the market. Accordingly, other founding partners include Gavin Wood, Anthony Di Iorio and Joseph Lubin. On the other hand cryptocoin.com Vitalik Buterin, who always adorns our news, published the whitepaper introducing Ethereum in 2014. Now, Ethereum is a giant that includes many altcoins.
