Project Fundamentals
- Ethereum is a technology allowing users to transfer and send cryptocurrency to anyone with minimal fees.
- Anyone can have access and use it, and no one can manipulate or take it down.
- It enables the use of digital money without intermediaries or banks, and can use various digital assets.
- It is used as a marketplace of financial services, applications and games that cannot steal data or censor the user.
Partnerships / Implementation
- The Ethereum Whitepaper was originally published by Vitalik Buterin in 2013, and the project was launched in 2015
- Ethereum is backed by some of the world’s biggest financial institutions and investment banks including Visa, Mastercard, UBS, and JP Morgan
- Some of the worlds biggest companies with valuations over $1b are integrating blockchain technology into their operations including Amazon, Microsoft, and Samsung
- Ethereum’s performance has seen exponential growth as a result.
Roadmap and Announcements
- As of December 2021, Ethereum 2.0 (Eth2) is being developed with the aim of making Ethereum more scalable, sustainable, and secure
- Some of the changes included in Eth2 include the Beacon Chain which allows Ethereum staking, it lays the foundation for future upgrades and will coordinate the new system
- On the 6th of September 2022 Ethereum successfully completed the Bellatrix upgrade which is an upgrade to the network’s consensus layer, otherwise known as the Beacon Chain.
- On the 13-15th it is expected that the Ethereum Total Terminal Difficulty threshold hits 58750000000000000000000 from which the Ethereum 2.0 merge will occur.
- In 2023, shard chains will aim to expand transaction and data processing for Ethereum and will be rolled out in stages.
- In the early weeks of 2023 staking activity has steadily increased moving towards the Shanghai upgrade, which is expected to happen in March 2023.
